i think it was 54 miles if i remember right... did you go to uvsc? the first 20 or so times i flew down there were white knuckle events,, nothing like being number 8 on the extended downwind over the lake huh trying to find a white katana against the snow in the mountains?? after they got the tower though things seemed to calm down, but i left about 1 month after it opened.

hahaha, well now that we have taken this thread in a whole new direction i will try and bring it back. these pay rates will never stand, and we will never vote for something that will pay the fo's the same rates...

Here comes the bash skywest thread of the night. You can compare payrates all you want but we make more on our w2s than 9 out of 10 of the regionals out there with our bonuses and rewards not to mention we don't get taxed by alpa for 2%. Flame On

Skywest tops out at 105.
I am not defending Skywest. They are one of the lower paid 900 operators (in terms of straight rates), along with Mesaba. These rates are terrible.
Good luck Pinnacle.

Both sets of rates are pathetic, buts whats more pathetic is that SkyWest pilots agreed to their rates. The race to the bottom continues.
