[CoAlpha]

yep lower the mins, before raising the pay. we all saw this coming....

 

[QuasarZ]

850 total with 200 hrs in 121?? Still the 100 multi?

 

[35off]

so quasar, how many 121 operations are single engine???? if one had 200 hr 121 would they really be concerned over 100 hr multi requirement???

Did you pick out a hair cut yet, toolllll..

I know every regional is hurting for pilots, but is the situation getting rough for SkyW? This is the first I've really heard about the mothership having troubles finding pilots.

SkyW guys, what have you noticed out on the line?

 

[Grey Ghost]

i thought they said that they would never do that!

 

[CoAlpha]

[CheeseDick]

I was on the ramp yesterday. This is what happened.

Ramp 3: "SKW whats your departure vector?"

SKW: "Uhhh, Colorado Springs."

Ramp 3: "No, SKW, whats your departure vector?"

SKW: "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, yeah. We're going to Colorado Springs."

ASA: "Hey man, she wants to know what departure you have out of ATL."

SKW: "Yeah SKW is going to Colorado Springs."

Me: "Just imagine when they take over ASA ops."

Too bad Pacific Wings is 135. 121 has to be multi.

Ohhhh! Booyah!

 

[sstearns2]

The email CE sent out stated that the the mins are now 850 TT if you have 200 hours of part 121 jet time (CRJ or similar).

At least I don't fly a 90 seat plane for 50 seat rates.

 

[dickburns]

lol. the only good thing that skywest guys have going for them (flying 90 seat jets for 50 seat rates) is that they aren't the biggest idiots out there. the geniuses at Skybus are flying 140 seat jets for 50 seat rates. so it's all relative, a skywest -900 driver probably thinks he's a baller to be makin the $ he does on a little jet compared to the underpaid boys on Skybus.

Just think, though. There are kids out there flying E90 KingAirs making more than lot's of 50 seat RJ drivers.

 

[strega7]

SkyWest pilots are paid the same rate for all three jets? I thought that changed.

 

[CoAlpha]

it did, people are 1.either jealous, or 2.work at asa

 

[CRJ2008]

It has. the payscales for the 50 seat is different than the 70 and 90. the 70 and 90 are the same rate, but higher than the 50.
