Not that we're aware of, they recently fixed a issue that didn't allow 175 people to jumpseat on delta, maybe that's what he/she meant

That makes sense. All I've heard was that since the 175 pilots aren't yet flying any delta flights they weren't eligible for actually family flight benefits. I was skeptical when I was told that had changed. My friend is a crj pilot, and so I can imagine that he could have misunderstood what the change was.

Rumor question: if you had to put money down when would you bet that delta will start running the 175 with Skywest? I know that no one knows the future, but it's nice to dream.

Nope- we can pay the annual fee to list on company Delta Connection flights only or Jumpseat on Delta.

I have heard many rumors about it. I would say a year or less for an announcement unless we ticked them off with too much Alaskan love (doubtful since I believe all they care about is bottom line), I expect to see 900 swapped for 175, far superior aircraft and with regards to customers.

Anyone know if the description of the interview process on the company website is still accurate? Just doing some preliminary research as I approach mins.

Idk about the company website, but aviationinterviews.com is pretty accurate. Pay the $20 for the upgraded account though, you'll see more of the gouge and i thought it was very helpful. I just interviewed last week, start training in a couple of months on the 175.

The gouges on Aviationinterviews.com are spot on. Well worth the 20 bucks.

1) Pulse
2) Mirror with fog
3) FAA minimums
When can you start?
P?S. If you are on the U.S. Marshal's wanted list, wear a wig.

Guess what? SkyWest used to do all their own ticketing and flying without CPA's too.
