Yet Gojet pays more than SkyWest. So are people who work for SkyWest selling out?

Correction. GoJet pays more by the hour than Skywest.

You made a post and I submitted a response. That huge post was my response to your questions

If you don't have a response, that's fine.

Talk about crazy......

Three questions, they're really not that hard.

Exactly. So why don't you just get to the point?

The point is that your compensation has much more to do with the economics of the regional airline segment than your representation. If you choose to ignore that, well that's your problem and not mine.

If you're permanently stuck on the idea that ALPA is to blame for all the ills in the world, no amount of facts will help you.

Again, three questions, three answers. Polemics don't count.

You really love putting words in people's mouths. When did I ever say that economics wasn't an important factor in our compensation? When did I ever compare the importance of the two??

Honestly the more you post, the more it seems like you are arguing with yourself.

No one ever put a gun to our heads. Everyone has a share
