I'd be surprised if someone in the next few Captain charm school classes doesn't ask Oscar and Scott and Bryan and Bebe why we don't reduce our flying with SkyWest when they each come down for their hour with the new Captains.
SkyWest is likely in violation of multiple aspects of their contract with United and if this issue gets enough attention, management can find legal ways to reduce or terminate SkyWest's contract very quickly. And any flying would be easy to replace by next summer's busy flying season.
Replaced by who? Do you really think these D scale regionals such as Transtates are filling classes? I know you’re too preoccupied to care about the regionals so I’ll answer for you. The answer is no. If you really think pilots have a say in contract agreements, you’ve been misinformed. You’re a number. Oscar will go home and forget who you are after he begins to sip his 25 year old single barrel bourbon. And don’t you forget that.
