No one will know if it's growth until it's done.
And we could shut down tomorrow.. Or buy 787's fly missionarys around..Anything is possible. But the company is confident they can find flying. They always have.. I will give them that.. I would bank on small growth...

The fact that your pay stops when then open the forward baggage door.

Default Input re:SkyWest

Have a job offer. My equipment to choose. Leaning towards E-Jet. What is the most junior reserve base (ORD)? How long on reserve in that base? How senior are the E-Jet FO's in DEN, LAX, SFO, SEA, PDX? How long would a new hire on E-Jet be based on ORD before getting a west coast base?

You do realize you are going to get a lot of comedic responses due to the way you phased your question and that this thread probably holds all of your answers...

Some of the American 200s make good money.
