The other new hire program has been in effect for a while now.

It's like we need One List.

Where the heck is Skywest getting all these pilots to fly those planes? I would have thought the supply would have run out by now. I sometimes want to believe there is a "shortage" of pilots, but really it's just a shortage of pay and compensation. I guess the post card with a lanyard helped a few hundred make the tough decision . We've been hearing about "pilot shortage" for decades!

I'd give it another year of us loosing planes to skywest and seeing them more in our bases before there is a real chance of booting alpa out and trying to merge..if alpa was so good for us then why are non union pilots growing and QOL increasing?

I would support that right now! Just look at TSA new TA and you can get an idea of what ALPA thinks your labor is worth!

The person you are referring to isn't even a rep. Hes a member of the PWG and has the IPB days to work the PBS awards.

Anyone see the latest ploy to attract new hires?



So this is what desperation looks like. While this'll most likely be an AA aircraft in DFW, I'm sure pilot recruiting will use this aircraft for "road shows." Imagine the excitement this'll create when N884AS (A 15 year old, washed up and ragged 50 seater) rolls up at airports near college campuses/flight schools.
