Dude, I'm not talking about just the last couple years. I'm talking about the last couple decades.

Sounds like it's pretty much like other regionals. Thanks for the dialogue, all.

To change gears, I'm at SWA and i heard about a month ago that there was a flow-thru brewing between OO and WN. I caught wind that some folks from SWA were milling around the training center in Salt Lick(sic).
Not flame bait, this is just what i heard and was wondering if any OO guys or gals have heard this as no other SWA line folk have that i have asked.

Honestly, I like your optimism but I doubt SWA will ever have a shortage of SKY guys, or any other airline, trying to get on there. Interesting enough we've had some very senior guys go over there for their last ten years of flying. Says something for this place?

But do share any other upcoming info you can please!

Those were code share talks, not flow through.

Everyone knows SWA has iron clad scope. No codeshare... it was Flow talks. Go talk to SL yourself.. he a super cool dude.. if you’ve been around here you would know him..

Yes 5 is to many. But we don’t have “hundreds” with this issue.. the biggest was SLC CRJ FO’s there were 21 people.. they have all trained or forfeited there bid..

SAPA IS Management.
And if it happens to even ONE pilot, it’s BS. Stop defending your lack of a contract and lack of a union with BS statements.

Have to start somewhere. Skywest hasn’t had a contract ever. Ever.

How many bases has Skywest closed? Want me to list them for you too? Another lame argument. Your company colors are WAY too bright Mr. Company Guy.

Skywest guys pretty much flow through to SWA as it is. 😄The regional model over there fits perfectly for Skywest pilots.
