This is 100% fake. However Mesa airlines has been recruiting pilots on the SkyWest and Eagle HDQ parking lots going in for interviews... No joke.

Ha! Knowing those guys in recruiting I find that highly highly highly doubtful.

"Hello, The purpose of this email is to touch base with you and see if you would be interested in having an interview with SkyWest Airlines. This email is an exclusive email for Republic and Chautauqua Airlines Pilots only. We are very interested in working with you and are flexible on dates, times and locations on when and where you could do an interview. We are currently attending career fairs all over the country, and would love to me with you there as well.

Also, if you know of any other current Republic or Chautauqua Airlines Pilots that were unable to receive this message, please let them know, and we would gladly meet with them as well.

Here are some points to note: Pay during class: -$22 for both E120 and CRJ pilots with a 70 hour guarantee.

Also: -Recently we have changed our pay rates to have E120 and CRJ FO's be the same amount for the 2nd year of employment.

Thank you so much and please feel free to contact me if you have any questions,"


Let the games begin....in shortages there is profit....

Just because you received an email does not mean its real, as in from SkyWest. Who was the contact? How did they suggest you contact them? Those facts alone may tell us if its real.

The contact was Mr Atkin, a pilot recruiter. I sent him an e-mail inquiring as to it's authenticity...when I hear back, I'll report.

As in Jerry Atkin? The CEO and Chairman of SkyWest? Huh.

Jerry Atkin - Forbes

That's Great!

It's real. The Jeremy Atkin referenced in the email is involved in pilot hiring (as opposed to Jerry Atkin, who is the CEO).
