I'm looking at Skywest's rates and their FO rates are basically the same as most other regionals, not factoring in the bonuses that most others are offering in some form. Skywest also offers basically no new hire bonus, while others offer tens of thousands. And on top of that you have no union protection. They're upgrade time for someone with no qualifying experience also isn't special. I don't get why they're so popular.

Word is that they do that to get guys to accept the CRJ, then after 2 months of continually turning down the CRJ an earlier ERJ class date magically opens.
Plenty of warm bodies sure but a lot of them are weekend warriors with a wet commercial. Not the people OO is accustomed to sending through the factory.

And then you have the prize of LGA, I hear 7-8 guys are living in a small 2 bedroom apartment in Queens. What a prize right there!
Don't forget, historical credit or better baby!

The condition mentions 20 ERJs (instead of 25) to give company some flexibility if they run into trouble getting the program running in time for delivery of the first 4-5 airframes. In other words, it won’t trigger Section 6 negotiations if they can’t quite get the program running in time and UAL has to award the first frames to someone else.
