You did with the SFO construction cancellations.

Although, it's entirely possible you didn't realize it was a discussion about QOL. But that wouldn't really be a point in your favor.

Sure you do. You defend management and crew support practices a lot. The SFO construction is one good example. The reason the pilots pull out the pitchforks on you on this forum is because sitting at your desk in SGU you clearly don't understand what yours or AS's decisions do to pilots QOL.

Pilots don't complain about crew support just to complain. They seriously make some crappy decisions that screw with our quality of life especially on reserve and somehow people like you think it's all OK.

Amen brother or sister. I would just point out that JO does far more harm to our reserves. Anita and Klen just sign(ed) off on it.

You probably worked all night to come up with that one. BTW, I'd stack my 2 business degrees and years of prior experience against your Dixie College associates degree anyday. Hell a 10 year old can see the facts surrounding the subcontractor industry better than you.....

Also, why are you trolling these boards if you’re not a pilot? & if you're not a pilot and you spend you time here then that's just sad......

You might be new over there, so everything still feels fresh, but after a while you will see the frustration evident in the company because they haven't been able to win any new contracts in quite a while and the "quality reputation" they had when I was hired 10 years ago is gone. That's evident with all of these changes going on in top management.

There are many changes coming. Some good, some bad. The other regionals are biting hard and with the upgrade times being much shorter at many regionals now, SkyWest could have a very difficult retaining and attracting pilots, adding to it's woes.

Time will tell, but it's not going to be plain sailing no matter what announcements are coming.
okay, fine, not a troll. Apologies, most people who post stuff like that are trying to get a rise out of people.

I'm curious to hear where you get your numbers. You are suggesting that SkyWest Airlines (not skywest inc) is going to shrink by almost 50%. PRetty serious accusation!

^ Lets be honest... No one in SGU will let SKW shrink. They will pull from other sides... Until the "other" side is small and merge us all...
