Skywest to fly for US Airways

[XPOO]

You are not getting any Q 400's

The Q-400 is the back-up plan in case the CRJ7 gets scoped out at United. SkyWest didn't just kick the tires on a pay proposal just to scratch the idea completely. Just wait for it...

Jets over 50 seats are going to be scoped out which will affect Skywest. United & Continental pilots will not budge. Skywest will not be a fun place to be until they get reorganized.

Can you get the powerball numbers for this week, too?

You don't understand. They won't budge on 50 seat scope.

I understand that's just chest thumping by a vocal few claiming to be the voice of many and all. Fact is, you don't know how it will turn out just as well as I don't know how it will turn out. It might happen, it might not; it might even stay status quo.

To stay closer to topic, the rumor of SkyWest getting Q400s for growth or a scope-out holds merit regardless of the eventual outcome.

You can't undo what has already been done...not with airline scope, and certainly not in one fell swoop.

70 seat "small jets" aren't going to disappear from UniCal any year soon...

You sound so sure of yourself. The guys i have talked too would take pay increases to relax the scope. Granted they are not the whole company but i cannot make assumptions about which way they will swing. So unless you know every single pilot at UA/CO, or you can predict the future your comments are bogus. If you can predict the future, then i agree with AntiJedi, Powerball numbers please

The sad thing is, they will do it for a raise that will not even keep up with inflation.

Sounds like ultra senior heavy drivers willing to sell out there junior brethern for another 5 bucks/hr and increased defined controbution.

PSA has exactly 14 700's, maybe they are coming from PSA.

 

[Metro752]

that would be awesome. us air could take psa's RJ7s and give them to SKW to fly!

Like you have a clue what the mainline guys think.

Your right. Most people don't know what they are thinking. I suggest you ask them. Most aren't ashamed to admit it.

As compared to regional pilots that flew a 70 seat jet for the same as a 50 because their Mormon master told them he needed it to "prove it can be viable".

Like you think you have a clue because you're mainline.

Bite it, starfish.

I'd say I'm about 1000 times more informed on the status of negotiations, and how most line pilots feel at the combined UAL/CAL when it comes to scope. Enjoy the props.

Don't forget to wear ear plugs in that metro liner junior. Being deaf on top your being ignorant would be a terrible combination.

So.... You're saying no jets will fly for you? If not, what exactly are you saying about scope? Everyone is watching.
