It's on the Skywest recruitment FB page. Looks like it only applies to folks with a current CL65 rating. Paid on completion of IOE. Poaching attempt?

Ya just found it. I'm guessing since I am CL65 typed but not current I wont qualify. One could only hope though.

So they can dish out 7500 bones to new hires but can't give current pilots struggling to make it a raise?

What an absolute crock of sh!t!

They should have just risen first year pay $8.50 per hour, but who is going to come to SkyWest with a CL65 type anyway. There are so many better options now with fast upgrades.

I would venture a guess that a lot of pilots are CL65 typed by the completion of OE.

While I highly doubt that will happen, I also highly doubt things will be doom and gloom even if we DO downsize a bit this year. Hiring will continue it seems. In fact, if we DO downsize I think it would be a good thing in that our schedules will get better!
What's your math on this because I'm a year in and it's at least 3 years before I'll see an upgrade.
