LOL, SKW guys shouting down anykind of flow through talk because “why would we limit ourselves”, “were better then that” “we got this all figured out”

Stats don’t agree.

Civilian Invite Stats

I think civilian stats are all over the place. In my class of almost 40, 7-8 had some sort of military background. 3-4 pure corporate types and the remainder were majority CPP invites with a few non CPP Express carrier invites (think the non CPP folks were interns) One super young ERJ 170 F/O who was an intern. All of the regional guys were captains except one, only a couple check airman. Don't think any of them were from Envoy.

Plus the people that don’t really want to move on. And those that don’t know you have to go to the link and actually request it

So your “stats” are from one United new hire class?

Honestly the fact that they have painted this out to be some amazing deal while 4 other airlines have an actual CPP is an absolute joke and downright embarrassing. This kinda disingenuous behavior is what drives people to not come here. “more opportunity than any other regional pilot” 🙄🙄🙄

Honestly, the resume review is nothing but a joke and downright embarrassing. The company has been saying they were hesitant to bring on any program unless it was good. I’m starting to believe they just don’t want to try to offer their pilots anything of substance. 4 other regionals have a CPP. And we do more than double the flying than some of them. I’ve heard of how some candidates didn’t want to come here because they felt the company was disingenuous. This is a prime example. “More opportunity than any other regional pilot.” Maybe we can have our resumes “reviewed” by the time these CPP candidates are hitting mainline captain. 🙄

Bingo! It’s an absolute joke.
Furthermore, what the whole “we don’t need a flow” crowd fail to recognize is that new hire class slots are a finite quantity. Every single UA CPP new hire is one less slot made available to someone not in the program. Going forward UA has said they want roughly 30-40% of all new hires to be CPP pilots. SkyWest pilots are going to be at a distinct (and measurable) disadvantage simply because they are not participating.

Figure another 30% military, 10-15% corporate/ACMI and the rest for non-CPP/flow.
