I've seen/heard most of the other regionals (and mainline carriers, for that matter) do the same things that SKW gets poked about for probably many of the same reasons: operational concerns, performance limitations, ATC restrictions, etc.
It's easy to explain. As a species, humans tend to judge others by their actions but themselves by their intentions (and not actions). We give ourselves the benefit of the doubt or supply explanations that self-rationalize our own behavior but don't do any of that for anyone else and make judgements based solely on what we observe.

Or sometimes they just make good natured jokes, exaggerating characteristics for comic effect.

Perhaps. But often times it's not joking around, at least not in any obvious manner...else why would the OP have asked in the first place?

Are you kidding me??? He was asking for a friend? Common seriously, did that not sound like a troll post to you? And Skywest Pilots are just as guilty of talking smack about other regional airlines as well. I was in the Jumpseat on a flight home, thanks for the ride btw, but the captain forgot I was there for a little bit. Made for an awkward moment after he remembered

I saw someone say stuff on Endeavor page What’s going on here that everyone has bad things to say ? Asking for a friend |

Some hate to love SkyWest, others love to hate SkyWest.

That’s a prejudiced statement coming from a former Skywester. Like Amcnd says, read everything, and your answer is somewhere in between.
OO people often complain (like any other pilots), and often for good reason. But I've never heard them blame their troubles on another regional 2000 miles away on the opposite coast. |
