RAH, XJT, SKW/ASA and any other regionals (but especially those with 1500+ pilots) are always going to be talking to Majors about the future. Means absolutely nothing until the airplanes get new paint jobs.

There is no doubt in my mind that one day soon, ALL airlines will be under the protective umbrella that is SKYWEST INC. crew pass won't be needed, everyone can jumpseat. Upgrade times to fly innanashunul in a 74 will be 3 weeks from bro fo to 74 capitan. Pay will be 7 figures first year and all, and I mean all of the fa's will be suppa hot. All employees will of course be Mormons, uncle Jerry will give us all a 10% raise to cover the tithes of the church, and each day will start with thee mandatory ration of Koolaid, "My favorite flavor, Cherry red" Oh and of course I will be chief pilot, ruler of the universe and commander in chief of the anti alpa pro koolaid rulers of the universe! whatta ya wanna bet I can throw a football over them mountains?:D

That's what I want to know.

Maybe they're just having company retreats at the Gaylord Texan....

It was funny until I read this line. I'm not Mormon, I’m actually not religious at all, but this line went a little too far. Religion should not have been mentioned.

Just my opinion.

I heard that Eagle was submitting an offer to buy Skywest.

Hey, everyone is entitled to their opinion. Did not mean to offend. I am Mormon, an active practicing one at that and I was not offended sorry if anyone else was. But there are alot of us at SKYWASTE, why do you think alpa failed, we already give 10% can't afford another 2% (now that is sure to offend somebody);)

It may have been a questionable comment for some, had you not been LDS...but now that that's on the table, it's all good :) And funny as hell LoL :D

That was the attitude from ASA pilots that sunk the ALPA vote and ensured there would be no merger.

Only problem with that Newty is everyone knows Koolaid doesn't come in flavors... Only colors

I like purple.
