Sorry dude -- all in fun... In today's market, you have to have a sense of humor -- I win!

I was just waiting for you to come in here.:laugh: :beer:

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.

Im gonna have to call the BS card on that statement. If it is true, then SkyWest pilots make WAY TO MUCH MONEY.

SkyWest (SKYW) Calyon Securities upgrades Add to BUY. Target $34. Upgrade is based on the profit upside from the ASA acquisition and the assurance of the Delta contract. They believe the co has expanded growth opportunities for next year, mitigated its business risk with Delta, and decreased its business concentration in United flying. The stock is up 53% over the last 90 days but we believe on a long-term basis there is still much value in the shares, especially as SKYW has negotiated new long-term, guaranteed contracts for both itself and ASA with Delta for 15-year terms.
