You just signed up for a longer regional term. Skywest has never been a quick upgrade and never will be. People like it there and those people tend to stick around. What does flying for United or Airways have to do with anything? Skywest flies a contracted number of airplanes for those carriers, which by the way are usually two steps behind Delta. United is fighting to lock down scope and Airways might merge with American who already has enough feed and then I guarantee they'll fight for scope. The fact is you went to another regional, you are not safe. Don't think just because you went to Skywest that you can take a breath. BTW your attitude is pretty lame, I'm glad you left. You remind of that guy with the spiked hair and silver aviators smacking gum while walking through the terminal. Spot on? Or are your shades too dark? Grow up kid. I'm guessing if it weren't for your time at 9E you wouldn't have the mins for Skywest, but now that you do you take on the attitude that you're better than everyone?
Sigh, when hired at 9E I had well above the mins for OO, they just weren't hiring at the time. 9E was the only show in town still giving out tickets. I never claimed to be safe at OO, but I do believe I positioned myself just a tad better than hanging out at 9E. your assumptions of me having spikey hair and smacking gum are unfounded and hold zero validity. I could say you must be a bald, cranky, overweight captain who has no where to run but that assumption may or may not be correct. No need to assume ones character or demeanor. Good luck to you sir.

As far as I know they only rescinded the involuntary furloughs. The guys who were supposed to be furloughed June 1 are rescinded as well.

Its the comments you constantly make about 9E that gives you that demeanor. And my others were based on your attitude when you responded to my post. Good luck at skywest, why do you even care enough about pinnacle for pot shots? You obviously left, so leave.
