I can see you all talking about the pay which is a bit of a downer Welcome aboard, a roof yes but not sure about netflix. |

Including PER DIEM and "aggressive" pick up to brag about clearing 65k...ha, now that's funny. So, what you are really saying is the average FO who just fly's their line should clear around 50k a year as second in command of a 50 million dollar jet with 80 lives on board - roughly what a server or bartender at Applebee's makes.. your pay is garbage, and y'all voted in another 1 percent a year for 5 years when the ball was clearly in your court. And once again, other carriers are drastically raising the bar and SKYW management and the student council will surely run to the table in 12-18mos to coat tail... Some things never change...

Hi guys.
The domiciles map on the website is down and I was kinda wondering, as someone starting soon, how easy it would be to get Denver as a base on the CRJ and what airline benefits apply to there? Would we be talking a whole lot of months on reserve? If so I'd go somewhere with quicker reserve. Don't have any ties to anywhere, so can pretty much go where ever I am needed / wherever I want. I would however like to bring my wife over asap and I'd imagine that a reserve wage is comparably low to holding a line? Would be be able to afford a roof and netflix? I can see you all talking about the pay which is a bit of a downer. I'm starting in about 4 weeks. As someone transitioning from a C210 I felt like Skywest has the best training and the best visa support... To answer your question, yes, yes I am. |
Did anyone see that United announced hiring 2000 over the next 32 months? Obviously that number has bounced around a lot for a while while they get everything put back together over there. But I was thinking maybe this would put pressure on hiring departments across the board. Good news? or am I just a glass half full kinda person?

Just my two cents. |

Keeping butts in seats is going to be real challenge for any Regional. I think the ones that survive will have some kind of orderly progression for their pilots to transition to a mainline carrier. Those that don't will suffer and shrink.
Just my two cents. |
You think those numbers are enough to even make a dent though? Delta announced 6000 pilots tried to sign up for their last job fair in the first minute the window opened. Crashed the server etc. I don't know. The pilot shortage seems to be such a myth sometimes. Maybe a regional pilot shortage is reality. I don't see any shortage of people wanting to fly mainline.

Now if, and that is a big IF, you worked for one of those four companies AND passed the CPP interview, then it would be good news. |
