I can’t say I blame them though.
None of these places would hesitate to burn you if it came down to it. It’s an ugly cycle.
[size=0pt]There were no "commitments" (in the form of contracts) to be fulfilled. The employee pool spoke and made it clear...a lot of pilots don't want to work regional schedules on regional equipment for regional compensation. The top 20% may disagree, but that’s to be expected.
My ten cents (my two cents are free): If you’re committed to airlines, go to a wholly owned. Endeavor and Envoy both have flows and they’re both unionized. What little that amounts to is more than what Skywest has to offer. SkyWest's offer is little more than suggestions, implications, and insinuations. The only guarantee is you owe them the costs for training should you leave before your contract is fulfilled.
For those open to the idea, I would suggest 135/cargo unless you're coool with hanging out at a regional for a while.[/size]
