So Inc. closed SLC, big deal. For us they closed ATL, MKE, SAN, CLD, SMF, SBA and downsized DEN, ORD, TUS and FAT; all in the last 4ish years.

I'm for one list with no more than 2-3 year fences if any at all and no displacements due to seniority. If there's a vacancy you can bid for it but you cannot displace another pilot. Also no DOH even though it would work just fine for me, percentage based SLI so relative seniority is unchanged. Keep DOH for benefits.

But then again I don't really care one way or the other, I'm not staying.

What he said. No less than 5 year fences though. And to my expressjet brother, stop crying. You think I'm happy den is downsizing and thanks to UAL rewarding ASE flying to republic Im back on rsv.. Nature of the game

Nevermind...

not to sure how Jr Skyw is to XJT

NO!!! I worked hard and waited a painfully long time to get here. I could have gone to ASA or Expressjet loooong before I got the job at Skywest. If we were to integrate that would be all for nothing and I couldn't be sure the person I'm flying with had same intense interview and high standards I was held to... This is not to say that the rest of the Inc. guys aren't equally or more qualified, but watching someone who got into XJ or ASA with 500hrs walk right into my position and go right above me would be complete bull@#$#!!!

Yup 1000tt pattern work makes all the difference. He does not speak for me.

I still have yet to meet anyone hired here with 1000tt. There were only 12 in my class, all had prior 121 or military experience and all either held an ATP or were qualified for and earned it during the checkride. Meanwhile there are 1yr XJ guys still can't qualify for their ATP during recurrent.

Aren't the upgrade times on the jets all pretty close?

Hey bro, this is your best Anna pic yet!!:D

Mbur, likewise .. I'm just saying. G-code, I'm guessing 5-7 years at SkyWest ..
