Were you actually on there? If you read the facebook group at the time, you would have thought it would be voted down 95-1. There was 1 REALLY loud voice for it he has moved on.

No regional pilot group is going to let their own rogues start a jumpseat war with OO, that would be like letting your skinny loser buddy pick a bar fight with Mike Tyson.

Most major pilots could not care less about regional intra mural issues.

I flew with a SAPA guy who told me if we didn't take the 1% we wouldn't see another TA for years. The facebook group made everyone believe anything more than 1% would bankrupt us. That being said, most could see through the wool, but they just needed 51%. They won. We're now some of the lowest paid 121 pilots in America. Skywest went from the best to being the bottom feeders in less than 5 years. We're getting booted from jump seats.
I will never boot a Skywest jumpseater and I have plenty of petty reasons to do so. Nor will I talk about any of those petty reasons.

It will be a safe space for the 3 of us...unless you're wearing a MAKE AMERICA GREAT hat. Well, then it's on like Donky Kong and you should just rent a car.

2 OO pilots in the past month have been booted from a regional jump seat, told to find their own way.
