Thats the way the cards were delt this time... and how do you think OO got to the top of the game... we have only been not top of the game for a year or so.. look back at a 45 year history of regionals and we’re OO has been... you will never last in this industry if you don’t have patients, ask any Major airline pilot about that... is it crapy here right now. Yes, (for certain people based on seniority and aircraft).. does that mean everyone is going to impatiently jump ship. No....

ERJ is staffed right now at 13.9 pilots per aircraft... no issues there. The CRJ is at 9.4. Thats the problem...(last CLX was 14 days ago.(AS side) And on the DL side 52 days...) we do 2000 flights a day... Funny how Endeavor/Republic just got good contracts and we DEMAND to match then the day after.... does it suck here... ya. For certain groups, dtw/msp pilots flying there tails off, slc doing mostly 4 day trips out to msp/dtw and loosing flying to the ERJ side.. Even if someone wanted to make a lateral move to Endeavor. They couldn’t tell late fall by then will match them...

They will stretch it in any way they can to not code it as a staffing cancelation.

How long have you been in this industry? (Me 21 years) SkyWest will catch up, this has been going on for years. Look back to the 90’s. Comair,Wisconsin,ACA, got a raise. Within a year or 2 everyone matches, no different now.. And by lowest I assume you ment FO starting pay... Just have some patience. By summer will have a TA. By fall, a flow.. these forum boards haven’t changed in 20 years either!!!

Those numbers are not true. I have gotten calls (didn’t answer) from them to cover flights that were in danger of canceling for lack of staffing and watched them code the cancelation as weather or maintenance when it didn’t get covered.
They will stretch it in any way they can to not code it as a staffing cancelation.
