Skyways Big Announcement Next Week?

[FlyWolf]

Good luck to all my Skyway friends out there, sorry to hear the bad news but I am sure you will do much better in the long run.

I also agree with the others, its not Skywest fault, its all on Midwest management shoulders.

 

[LewisU_Pilot]

Man this really blows. Sorry to hear guys. Good luck to my fellow lewis guys up there.

 

[hey]

Well, guys/gals. It's been an absolute pleasure working with each and every one of you here at Skyway, I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity.

I guess I still have an upgrade class next monday, so if they feel like they still want to pay for my type, well, I'm not going to turn it down. I'll be here till the doors close....

See ya in ops....
Jeff

I have posted twice today and I have to admit that I have a very good PM to return. I usually don't post unless it is a great smart assed comment. (Just the kind of person I am).
The following is a true Charlie moment:
I have gotten my ass chewed by my fiance and also watched some local newscasts featuring people I have flown with and trained. I have always been known to talk more sh*t than a japanese radio station. This one time I wont.
I will truly miss those that I have flown with here. I will also miss most of those that I trained (except the peckerheads...you know who you are). I am a bit heartbroken about losing what I have sunk some pride into. Most I would give a good hug to in public. I am Tuna and you know I would hump your leg for a good laugh!
If you are doing any upgrade training. I will still give you the best I can do. I owe any pilot the best I can deliver even if I am a bit bummed. (If you are Jeff, my step-son owes Jenny a dollar).
I will miss you all. See you on a different line. Call my fiance and tell her it's not that bad. Until then, let's enjoy a cold one.

the black hole that is Skywest has claimed another victim. should have seen that coming when they started.

if SKYW management had a heart, and if skyway management had a pair it would have negotiated an integration much like Shuttle America had with Chautauqua.....namely captains sent 1 to 1 to the lower-middle of the list and F/O's all together and lower.

to the skyw 65%, enjoy that midget raise.

 

[FSIGRAD]

That sucks. I worked for Skyway briefly around 2 years ago. I was part of the class that got furloughed due to the loss of the DL contract. I really liked the people there. They handled the furlough the best out of the 3 times it has happened to me.
If anyone is interested in a RAH LOR PM me your info. ORD base is going to S5 newhires.

Tuna

Hey Tuna, I just have to put this out there....
You once humped my leg. It was in the crew room, nobody else was around, I was sleeping , and you weren't laughing, you seemed pretty focused. I figured it was easier to just let you finish.
Haha, had to take that shot, you know? Best of luck, screw Uncle Timmy!

 

[10nCLR]

And more pilot's jobs are whacked by the Mormon Mafia...

You're a tool fool, it was not SkyWest it was Midwest's final decision.

little bird told me

It must have been the same birdy that told me.

Skyways Big Announcement Next Week?

By the way, I don't think it's good news for them. That's what the little birdy told me to say, so don't tell anybody else except for the Kool-Aid Man. Oh Yeah!

First we did'nt buy Skyway so why should the list be integrated? If you want to stay in MKE come on over you will be CA in MKE in a year or two.. On a side note we are only getting 4 more airplanes right now to replace your 12 Do328 and 2 1900's ...

The PR Spin Doctors are saying that there will be the same number of seats, but with reduced frequency. That will take more than 4 CRJ's.

Any word if you will be going to RHI or MKG?

...and there are/were 4 1900's, thank you very much!

They will melt down 12 328s, 4 B1900s, and 200 sets of pilot wings and make 4 blue CRJs with it.

I guess those will be in better shape than the old Comair and ACA planes they have now.

Because you are voiceless, what you really think doesn't matter. If Skywest management said "We'll interview, and give DOH to whomever we hire", what are YOU going to do about it? If you Skyway guys do enable Midwest management and apply over there, ask for DOH if they offer you employment. Why not? 60some percent doesn't care what management does, why should this be any different?

 

[GOULET!]

Couldn't have said it any better Propsync. I think I may show up and ask that very question. Somehow I don't see them warming up to the fact that Skyway Captains would be senior to most MKE based Captains for Skywest though. If they have a problem with it they can go grieve it with their union.

Oh, wait...
