Gee, we might furlough IF things don't get better by the time the usual post-summer reduction comes along IF they won't need everyone for the holiday bump IF we park the EMB's IF we can't agree on a leave policy IF...

Nothing to see here, move along.

I tend to agree with you. Nothing to see here. And you all can resurrect as many times as you want. For the time being, there is nothing to see here.

Don't make me bust out Mark Twain again.

Not trying to beat a dead horse. I just get the feeling that some folks at Skywest believe they are immune to furlough. All I am gonna say is, get your finances in order. Consider the dismal earnings report as a shot across the bow. The stock is tumbling and Jerry, Chip, Brad, etc. are under scrutany from the share holders. BTW, I don't work for SkyWest and therefor don't get the SAPA updates. My source is someone within the SGU inner circle. But hey, carry on, nothing to see here.

If you don't work at SkyWest how are you getting the feeling that people believe they are immune to furlough? Forum boards?

4th Qtr. profit halved from last year due to too many pilots. That's straight from Brad Rich via the Conference Call. Now true, that may be from the ASA side, but I doubt it as 80 went on furlough last week.

Remember that was "SkyWest INC." they don't split how much each airline makes.. But I will tell you this, my bonus check was bigger then last year same time!! So that would suggest that SkyWest is doing allright.

ok...you don't work for skywest but you seem to have inside information on us. Secondly your aircraft types indicate skywest aircraft. Your screename implies you work for skywest.

You're probably one of those creepy people that uses internet dating too aren't you?

While I appreciate this concern you have for our pilot group I truly think that you are just stirring the pot and wishing bad on us.

As they say "Misery loves company"

BTW the stock price has been going up and down several dollars a lot in the last year and a half.

Really, there isn't anything to see. September may be different, but only time will tell. It's February.

A shot across the bow: A warning that I might lose a regional job that I love so much and that I get payed so well to do and is my whole purpose for living.

Yeah, I'm trembling in fear.

God help me if I have to move to an island and start SCUBA instructing.

Maybe I ought to learn how to be a truck driver, what's the number of that truck driving school we saw on TV, Truck Masters I think it is, I might need that

Either that or flying cargo planes full of rubber dog poop out of Hong Kong.

SkyWest downgraded to Sell at Argus . Argus downgrades SKYW to Sell from Hold saying they expect capacity reductions at major airlines to continue to reduce block hours and available seat miles at SkyWest. Firm also projects few opportunities for additional contracts or expansion of existing agreements, restricting revenue and earnings growth.

Just my opinion here, but...when you start to see things like this...:

...anyone with half a brain would have to begin to worry a little.

SKW has 12 airplanes worth of crews in the YX/MKE operation...running about 100 flights a day for a carrier that isn't even a shadow of what it once was and could very well not be around next week. Lose that portion of the overall operation and, suddenly, your already fat crew roster is morbidly obese.

Coupled with this and you start to begin to see etchings of what may come.
