I've never herd of there being such cities as Milwaukie and Portland in Australia. But if it is true, I feel sorry for those poor Skywest guys out there.

What a classless post. How about putting a question mark at the end of the title?

A moderator should just start deleting all of these posts with rumors posted as fact.

Thanks.. So not to be negative but if that flying were to go away would SKYW have to furlough or can the DAL/UAL flying absorbe the staffing.

 

[MarineGrunt]

It's anyones guess. I'm sure Jerry and friends have that on the tip of their brain at the moment, since MW is on VERY thin ice... It's kind of hard to think that someone wouldn't fill the gap if MW tanks... then again, who has the $ to do so?

You laugh, but part of the application process at ACA (Atlantic Coast Airlines, later Independance Air) was on interview day to write a one page essay on what makes a good captain or what makes a good fo (topic assigned that day). You did this during the 45-50 mins that you were given to complete your "ATP-style" written that you also took that day.

And even if it wasn't stated...if you don't think spelling and penmanship were important, then you were in LA-LA land.

(1st impressions are a terrible thing to change.)
