I have to laugh at comments like this. What? Is it too hard for you to read a well thought out narrative? Do you prefer to read the 2 paragraph summary of a 450 page book too?
Sometimes it takes more than 50 words to make some good points.

You're absolutely correct. That's why I said scheduling and work rules are more important than book rates. Horizon my have higher published rates, but knocking out six to eight legs per day in a Q400 doing short hops more than negates that.
Being senior will always pay better than being junior. If you're not in the top third of the Captains list, move on.

I'm much more senior than you, our pairings just really suck!

I did read it all. He makes some excellent points. I must have taken him quite awhile to write it. This site is useful when you are bored on long layovers. Other times, most people have better things to do.

I don't know if this has been discussed yet, but skywest is starting a 24month zero-hero program using their newly purchased TransPac, soon to be renamed "Aeroguard".
Day 1: student pilot
Day 720: start at Skywest.

Stock closed at $44.40, up $10 over the last month, that's almost 30%. Something's going on behind the scenes.

The rest of the aviation trading word has sold off over the last month and offers better value.
We will see.
I think they may be buying back shares they said they were going.
