Comair will continue to operate, if we were to get shutdown it woulda happened already.

 

Sorry, I'm not going to say ASA will never get CR9’s, I just wouldn't expect them any time soon. Remember that so many ASA pilots swore that our flying in ATL would end once you guys approve your new TA, but we're still here and for now we’re not going anywhere. Yes our flying has decreased (in ATL) as 9E starts operating but that flying has been replaced by more flying out west, in my opinion I’m pretty sure JA wants to maintain a presence in ATL. I understand there will always be routes that 9E can't fly due to their contract with NWA and what's where we come in, for now. There's also a rumor that SKW will start flying CR7’s out of ATL soon, but all that has been reported to date is ATL-ASE (Aspen, CO) to be operated by SKW in 08. I think anything else is wishful thinking.

Please don’t get me wrong, I wish ASA and their pilots the best.

 

Is there Beef between the two company.. I thought that it was one company

 

No beef from the SKW side but I keep hearing about it from "the friends of ASA pilots " that ASA pilots have a huge beef with us. (Just seems like everyone knows one and isn't one themselves.) Why they have a beef I do not know, we don’t run the company and don’t have any control over their future. I think it’s ridiculous to hold any pilot group responsible for another’s problems.

As for the same company NO! SKW & ASA are COMPLETELY different airlines on COMPLETELY different certificates with COMPLETELY different labor groups and Mgmnt; all owned & managed by SKYW INC (Umbrella Company on paper). Who was created in order for Jerry and friends to branch out more into the industry.

SKYW Inc = SkyWest Incorporated (Jerry and Friends)
SKW = SkyWest Airlines (SKYW original airline)
ASA = Another SkyWest Airline (sorry couldn't help)

I wish all ASA pilots the best.

 

So what is the deal with GoJet??? Does anyone know anyone that flys for them??

 

If anyone does they will not admit it

 

I know someone who flies for them.

 

So, I went on to Epic today to see if I got the days off that I wanted so I can do a little planning ahead of time, but then I saw on the homepage that they *******ed up the CA line awards and of course everyone got delayed until who knows when. They need to get rid of SBS!

 

Calm down there killer. Everythings out now.

And yes, I know someone who flies for GoJet.


Did anyone see the new CRJ900 over at the hangar with the special paint job? Looks just as bad as when (somebody) voted for it. I don't understand how the ugliest of the 3 won the vote

 

Great, another month of reserve...


I haven't seen it at the hangar. Is is this one? If yes, I voted for it. I don't have to fly it, nor have the desire to go to the 70/90. i just gotta look at it.
