Also, don’t figure on everything in the industry staying the way it is. Any one of these guys considering Skywest COULD be stuck as an FO for much of their career if any one of a number of unfortunate events take place.
As far as FO pay needing to go up.. all pay needs to go up. I can do the same comparison with the captain scale if you would like.
The point is Skywest is far behind in pay and QOL and they are in no hurry to raise the bar.
