If you take into consideration the difference in pay it does not take long to come out ahead by going to an airline that will be around in 2 or 3 years. Most of the standup at Skywest are 6 to 7 hours of credit a day. Are they up to a 4 hour guarantee at GJ now?

With the bonus, a DEC is probably ahead of a skywest pilot after one year but by year 3 a skywest guy will be ahead. Skywest has a lot of incentives and bonuses. After that GJ is not in the same area.
