Airline Pilot Central Forums

So glad this is what SAPA is focusing their energy on instead of meaningful compensation increases and policy changes that benefit the pilot group as a whole.

The exact words I said last night.

Exactly, from the 9E side, I'd say there's no way that the Compass 175s end up with us. They'll be at your shop, maybe in exchange for the CR7/9 that Delta owns that you guys fly.

Only way that 175s make sense at 9E, is if there is a Delta order for 175SC type airplanes coming to replace the G7 CR7s

I am on the CRJ side! Nothing but sitting in hotel rooms. Last 5 day block of reserve I flew 2 hours. Previous 4 day block I flew 3 hours. Several times I called CS asking why guys below me got trips and they said for emergency 100 hour consolidation purposes so I know other reserve guys are not flying.

The system is broken if line guys are complaining about not being able to drop trips and reserve guys are complaining about not flying enough. And then this Part 91 crap comes up.

What a joke. Not sure which is more sad, this? or the fact that 99% of SkyWest pilots couldn't care less about the fact they are being completely sold out by their "representation"

When are the SkyWest pilots going to wake up, and say enough is enough with this nonsense?

I used to have some pride about the company and people I worked with. Now I'm mostly embarrassed at the level of apathy.

Very well said. We are frighteningly apathetic. I doubt that our apathy-dilemma will change any time soon.

Sapa isn’t working on compensation because a TA passed that doesn’t expire for 5 years....

I don't think that's the way this will go down. I think the planes Compass operates for Delta will go to Skywest. And I believe the GoJet 700's will end up at Endeavor. No proof, but I feel that this was the carrot Delta used to get Skywest to terminate the ASA/ExpressJet contract early. Either way, I don't think it will be a good time to be at either GoJet or Compass in the not to distant future
