If it helps, these restrictions are just temporary.

That's some funny stuff right there!

Flight cancellations continued in May; More pilots in training for Great Lakes Airlines - County 10?

No, they are amendable.

The fact that the FAA had to step up and tell Flight Satndards how to fly the plane they have had for the last 20 years displays the true incompetence of the cube dwellers that can't or never fly.

The irresponsible numbers that management said were safe, are obviously not, and finally they have been turned off.

SkyWest had this coming and it's embarrassing.

With any luck it will get somebody fired in SGU, but the normal management fashion I'm sure they will just blame the pilot group.

Yes that way we can all be making a loss together and have a nice toxic pilot group where you guys still hate us for "taking your flying"...

They caved in back in 2010.

The only reason why xjt loses money is because of the poor CPAs that inc negotiated. The same synergy savings JA touted back in 2010 would be more significant with just one airline instead of two. But the wage suppression (whipsaw) must be so tremendous that it outweighs those savings. Only you guys and management seem to be ok with that though.

And has it occurred to you that maybe some xjt pilots are they way they are is precisely because of the division and our CEO pitting us against each other? It wouldn't be your flying or our flying. It would be our flying and it would be all of us pulling in the same direction instead of being whipsawed against each other. Our pilot group wasn't "toxic" before our CEO implemented his whipsaw business model upon us.

I don't think it looks good for SGU that just last week we had pilots getting ACARS messages for flying too fast. Lots of good things would come from getting out on the front lines and seeing the impact of decisions that are made. It may require working more than Monday thru Thursday. Either that or listen to the folks that are on the front lines. Or we can just keep doing it the way we have always done it...

There are also ACARS messages for going too slow.
