MYFpilot said:SkyWest pilots are currently in negations with management for a new "contract". From what I can tell management is proposing a 1% pay raise for the pilot group. What length of time the new "contract" will be good for and all the specifics are still unknown. Assuming the 1% pay increase is implemented and the "contract" goes through in 2007 a 7 year, 50-99 seat captain at SkyWest will make approximately $70.04/hr
Here is a perfect example of what is wrong in this industry. 50 - 99 seat pay rates $70.24. How can you agree to fly 70 - 99 seats for subpar 50 seat rates. Well I guess in the race to the bottom it must feel good to be one of the leaders (Skywest will never be accused of taking a back seat to Mesa)
