I know and no one seems to care that they are doing it to avoid as long as they can to raise pay. They are importing pilots because they cannot get enough pilots at the compensation level they are currently offering. If they could fill classes with US pilots they would not be importing pilots and to get around raising pay they started looking at importing pilots. Looks a bit like Norwegian stuff to me....it can also be seen as importing cheap labor as not enough US pilots wants to work for the current pay.....must fill classes.....right
Thank the US govt for that lovely one way work visa program. SkyWest is just taking advantage of it.

To my understanding Australia has the 457 visa program for you yanks, under which quite a few have jumped the puddle & immigrated to the island. It does go both ways my friend

Stirring the melting pot
I just do not agree that they “look like us”
“We”, “Us”, are many and even Skywest is a melting pot. Some people hate that fact, I love it.
They may look like some of us but “some of us” are not representative for SkyWest or the US as a country

Expressjet pilots will have the fastest route to UA
Shares of SkyWest (NASDAQ:SKYW) perk up off reports that United Continental (UAL +1.1%) is interesting in the company's ExpressJet unit.

Behind doors “quick leak UA is buying XJT to stop pilots from leaving”. In all reality i bet it happens. Maybe not 100% purchase but something. Bigger question is why would SkyWest sell back XTJ only to compete with them again. That was the reason inc purchased them in the first place...

Anyone else notice that CommutAir is paying CA rates to ALL pilots after year one? Endeavors pay raise is impressive to say the least. Envoy guys are talking about $20 raise across the board over on their forum. Any historical precedent on how OO management reacts to these type situations?
