Default Skywest opens IAH base

Skywest to fly 70 seaters. Don't think they will be making friends with the CAL pilots.

It will be UAX flying, a realignment from other bases. It's up to the CAL pilots to negotiate the post-merger scope that they want, hopefully they won't blame SKW pilots for being sent out there...most of us would rather be further West.

There will be a MSP base too.

Whatever happened to the "West" in SkyWest?

Both bases are west of the mississippi so technically they are west.

Ors is going to get shrunk so we are moving further west.
