Easy EH. Asking someone else to do what you could've done in 30 seconds and then getting frustrated that they didn't do it for you is a little silly.

I agree with Duvie, asking others to do what you can just as easily do and then get a bit bent is silly.

Regardless my TFAYD comment was just a general knock at SKW's Mgmt, in general. Sorry if you thought it was direct at you.

Is there any skywest pilots in LAX that are in crash pads? I was trying to find some info on it, but no luck so far. I know of 3 guys looking for somewhere to hang up their hats. Thanks

Uh, sorry but that is way off. We need pilots and that is a fact. We are still hiring and that is a fact also. Exact numbers are hard to come by, a lot of it will be a 'wait and see' approach I'm sure. Rest rule changes and attrition will be the two biggest factors most likely.

We are understaffed in February and that is a bad sign. I'm half way up the seniority list and I've been moving up weekly so folks are leaving.

If you want to come here, keep your stuff updated and hang tight.

It was a comment to deter wingtips he blasted every thread last night about hiring without even looking on his own.

Hiring? Transitions? Upgrades?

I'll tell you this much, whatever the final number ends up being for 2011 I'm 100% positive it won't be enough. Keep in mind Chip did say "if we are 1 pilot beyond Minimum Reserve Staffing then we are overstaffed."

We still have 4 EMB new hire classes and 10 RJ New Hire / Transition classes on the books from now until July 5th and I fully expect the classes to continue through late October. In the end I expect 300+ish New Hires for 2011 and so far we've put less than 50 in class for 2011(includes todays RJ class).
