Got it, thanks for checking.

Sounds like the 175 flying is going to really pick up on the west coast.

Why do you say that?

There's like 19 planes coming before the end of the year and all going west.

that's a negatory julio

Is SkyWest still encouraging FO applicants to apply when they are 2 to 3 months shy of 1500 hours? I thought it was in the website before but don't see it now.

Hope to have about 1300 hours in February any idea what are my chances of getting SEA or PDX? Would the CRJ or EMB be better to get west coast?

Thanks

You'll want to take the E175 if you want SEA/PDX. Sounds like those are going junior.

I just got interviewed with 1330TT and said I wouldn't expect 1500 until end of January and they didn't have a problem with that and was offered a conditional class date on the spot.

Starting to get close to my hours and looking at the regionals. I have always wanted Skywest, however with other regionals paying 50-60k starting its hard for me to justify going to Skywest. Is there any talks of Skywest upping their pay to compete with the others?

Supposedly we're in contract negotiations early but I wouldn't count on it. Other places have to have bonuses to fill classes for a number of different reasons, Skywest fills classes without huge payouts, why do you think that is?
