i couldnt read this forum.... too tired of "waaah waaah waah your airline sucks"

good luck to all skw pilots! I hope you can all work on better pay rates. Better pay for you means better pay for everyone else. Dont settle for this BS deal. You might not be organized or have official "leverage" but you can always throw a wrench in your own operation to show management your a unified pilot group. good luck

4% last year... and 2.5 OR so is avg... 1% raises means you are losing buying power..... Good luck what ever you guys at SKW decide.

I know 1% is absolute BS but which regionals getting 3%-4%/yr for inflation?

I want AT LEAST 2%/yr.

Ahhh yes, let the Mesaba guy throw the first stone. Nothing like a CRJ-900 CA making less than a 145 CA at CHQ, xjt, or CRJ200 at SKW(including their work rules and benefits), Air Whiskey, CRJ700 at ASA(again work rules still better), Compass on their 175s, etc. Smells like hypocrite!!! Probably shouldn't pipe up like that since the SKW guys still walk all over your current contract. You do run neck and neck with Gojets though!

RAH contract that was just amendable and was 4 years old had a 2% escalation to it each year. 3% should be the bare minimum as that is probably very close to historic averages for inflation.
