So Skyway has a pretty stagnant upgrade time currently?

Currently, no. In the future, quite possibly yes and by "future" I mean after the next 6 months or so.

You're NOT going to find any 121 regional with quick upgrades these days. Mesaba and CMR are both furloughing with PCL probably not too far behind. Most of the growth has been with Skywest and CHQ but their respective seniority lists are growing each day. Mesa? Lakes? Don't know if either have quick upgrades.

Find a place that fits your needs and that you can handle working at for the next 5 years. It's gonna be a while before you're competitive enough to move onto the "show".

Just about everyone that was displaced by the Delta deal not going through is either back in their seat or will be relatively soon. I think that upgrades at smaller airlines will always be a little better then most of the bigger ones. If Skyway recieved just 5 more planes, that would be 25% more growth. If CHQ was getting an additional 5 (granted I know they're getting a lot right now), that's more like 3% growth. When Midwest takes a small class of 4 Skyway pilots, that's 2% off the senority list. When 4 CHQ pilots leave that's like 0.2% off the senority list.

Skyway shouldn't really ever have upgrades that extremely long. Many of 100+ people that left Skyway 6 months ago to go to Comair, Mesaba and Pinnacle could possibly be furloughed soon when if they had stayed they'd be not very far from 1900 Captain.
 
Unfortunately Skyway doesn't have any kind of online app or anything. Aviationinterviews.com will have some pretty good gouge. Probably just mail or fax a resume would be your best bet.

just email them, www.midwest-express.com beech class starting in november... study your jepps, know 121 regs, dont be a moron, and you should be alright.

While I'm sure your excited with being a newhire DoJet F/O at Skyway and welcome aboard BUT you might want to avoid making comments such as the highlighted sentence lest YOU appear to be moronic.

Your new employer, Skyway, is owned by MIDWEST AIRLINES - not Midwest Express. The correct website is www.midwestairlines.com. The correct Skyway HR email address is [email protected].


HMM
 
sorry to sound "moronic" but both websites work the same, and it doesnt really matter which website you type in, both go to same place. i know who i work for, and i love it. but you are correct, it is midwest airlines, not express... crap, midas well still call us Astral Aviation. all in all im going to bed call it how you see it
 
skyway

Does skyway have any other bases other than millwakee? Just curious. The company website isn't too helpful. Thanks!

Shadow,

The next time you use that many of those smiley things, make sure you're wearing a dress. This isn't some Yahomo site.

jobear- hope you're doing well. A few I've talked to say the grass hasn't been greener wherever they've gone. Hope it's working for you.

You are right Shadow. You go up to the deer camp for a couple of days to get it ready and also do the ceremonial "Big Buck" dance in my raccoon hat and lucky long underwear around my tree stand and you get people like Jobear making fun of you. He is such an elitist. :)
