I know personally at least two pilots that were hired at Skyways with 300 total time. These two pilots flew the line at Skyways for a month and a half before the company went under. One was hired into the Shuttle America 170 with about 450 total hours and now currently has just over 600 hours. The other pilot has very similar numbers. These pilots are on the seniority list. I am sure there are pilots with 1200 hours or more furloughed, but there are also a few 600 hour pilots. These pilots may have been given a break due to previous 121 experience, but they are 600-hour pilots none the less. Why don't you research next time before trying to discredit someone?
