What about local operators around ANC? Why do the Horizon folks point you back to SkyW? Seniority in ANC tough to get in? Or maybe Atlas flying cargo?
24 flights a day…. We have a few people that do it. They don’t seem to complain… QX is way to slow moving and they mostly higher through there pathways program that starts at them funding a loan for you to get ratings.. any QX pilot will tell you the fastest way to fly for Alaska is go to SkyWest…
