As for the same company NO! SKW & ASA are COMPLETELY different airlines on COMPLETELY different certificates with COMPLETELY different labor groups and Mgmnt; all owned & managed by SKYW INC (Umbrella Company on paper). Who was created in order for Jerry and friends to branch out more into the industry.
SKYW Inc = SkyWest Incorporated (Jerry and Friends)
SKW = SkyWest Airlines (SKYW original airline)
ASA = Another SkyWest Airline (sorry couldn't help)
I wish all ASA pilots the best.
Thanks for the great info. The new CEO over here says he wants to grow the company. May just be dose of kool-aid but as a new hire here Im hoping for growth, although with age 65 we might be seeing a little bit of a slowdown now. Anyhow, wasn't Mesa supposed to be flying 14 900s out of ATL for Delta? Since Mesa surely won't be able to staff those maybe they can send them to ASA.
