It has reached a critical mass.

Just like Walmart, Skywest can now put competitors out of business with tactics of questionable legality and deplorable ethics.

Then it can squeeze suppliers (that is: employees) with a "take-it-or-leave-it" approach.

And you think wages are low now!

Really, deplorable ethics huh?
I just got a bonus check today for $3183.29, boy do I feel used.
 
Walmart Airlines

They really are Walmart. Funny how a non union carrier, bottom feeder if you will, flies the 90 seaters for the same pay as a 50 seater. Real smart pilot group over there. Way to help the industry fellas.

We don't fly 90-seaters. Worry about yourself, we'll worry about ourselves, the industry will take care of itself.

You had quarterly earnings of over $43,300? Don't you get burnt out doing all those doubles in the sim?

For those on that outside thats averaging 150+ hours a month at the 18 year rate of $93hr, or 130+ if doing checkairman stuff.
