Yeah, Skywest is just tired of armature hour here. It would make sense that our parent company would take over. That is all. Its so funny to watch this thread unfold. People take something they saw out of the corner of their eye or over heard some line pilot in the crew lounge talking about, and turn into a conspiracy theory. It is fun to speculate and debate, but some of you take it so damn seriously

MT is moving his office away from Corporate and over to Flt Ops here at OO, so the focus is shifting away from the money and towards performance just as much over here.

Good. They really need to fix that problem. I don't know what took them so long to realize our performance was terrible and one of the reasons we can't new flying. They should have done this years ago.

Were all those aircraft retirements from United or spread out over several carriers? Just wondering if anyone has a break down of what's leaving from what company.

We didn't lose money, it's an accounting trick!

If only the people at Enron could have been as slick at SkyWest management has been, right?
