Let's not forget the great work NL did to get res. changes before he burnt out. He guided works of mulitple res chairs to fruition.

Edit Now I see the Reflow Pay crap, but it isn't listed in the ExecCorner. Hate that new site.

Ok I looked back but what exactly is going on here with the reflow EFB? Im assumingly going to be on reserve in a few months so why should I be scared of an IPAD? oh doooo telll

Nope, I QUIT on day two because I couldn't handle all of the kool-aid they were serving. After day two of SKY is better than everyone blah blah blah, I left.

I believe him. SkyWest pilots have no legal protection, get talked into crappy policy changes by those that are supposed to be helping them, 3+ year upgrades, and the base he wanted SW isn't telling what the future is. For him I think he made the right choice.

SW>Mesa maybe in the past. SW=Mesa right now. SW<Mesa after we get 24/7 tracking via EFB and all pilots are on ready reserve. Good news is that the temporary RR is only until the Olympics are over.

Maybe, but that was the old Mesa vs the new SW. I'm sure Mesa still has their issues, but SW is like Uncle Rico reliving the old days when they were on top and knowing that they can win state. Game has changed and SW refuses to see it. They think by lowering their hiring standards that they will be able to keep going, but I know of a couple people they have called trying to get them to come work. Guys flying corporate that like their life and have no desire to work 121. Pipeline is not there anymore and other airlines offer a better future than SW. JMO.

I was hired at Mesa in 2007, it only took two days at OO to know that I was better suited at YV. Mostly because of the people here.... Day and night difference from my observation.

Today at the ORD shuttle center, Skywest CA with a bumper sticker on the lower part of his suitcase, it read, "The few. The proud. Skywest Pilots." I wanted to barf and bust out laughing at the same time.

Pic to come when I can figure out how to get it off my iPad onto here...
