Not hearing much from the Skywest pilots today!

It would've been a good deal for the Skywest pilots, but they're too stupid to see the big picture. Didn't they vote against ALPA twice? You can bag on ALPA all you want, but when Skywest management puts down the hammer in the future, the pilots will have no recourse.

Hmmm captain overs your spot on like always. I guess I should have went to Mesa, Pinnacle, Trans States, Chitaco, Eagle, Mesaba, etc.. where everything is rosy and golden.

You know it's funny that every time an XE person comes on here (except for nevets) they all say how cocky the OO guys are...well, it seems to me that it's the OO guys who are taking the high road.

Most OO guys wanted nothing to do with XJT, contrary to the claims of the some of the XJT posters. Maybe there was a few immature idiots spouting off, but I hear you have those over at XE too. In any case, we're all glad that it turned out like this.

Why would a SkyWest pilot want Inc. to buy Expressjet. It wouldn't have added a single hours worth of flying at SkyWest.

In the long run, it would NOT have been good for Skywest pilots.

The deal that SKW and CAL had was for SKW to operate 29 of XJT's ERJs with Skywest pilots.
