Woes to new hires...pshhh. Just because they cancelled the EMB class does not mean the end of the world.

I'm so glad you can detect sarcasm so well, my friend- and yes, the remarks will continue until my status is change-able

Enough tomfoolery, however- I am sincerely curious, however, in hearing any insight regarding the growth prospects of Skywest in the next year for anyone willing to make a (however slightly) educated guess. Any line or reserve guys/gals see any trends for us uninitiated souls considering making the transition into the lucrative world of Regional flying.....

So if I sign a 1 year contract for another operator is my job offer still good at Skywest provided they are filling classes after my contract is up in one year from this Feb? If I explain this to them beforehand. How does this work? Keep in mind I am totally green so sorry if it sounds like a stupid question. This has really thrown a kink into what I thought would be a seamless transition seeing that I have an offer to PIC a King Air 200 around for an operator who's aircraft flies every single day.

I would also not give up a year of seniority at an airline to go to something else that isn't long term. Seniority is so so important it isn't worth giving up. I was furloughed from Eagle and shortly after I interviewed at RAH and they offered me a couple of class dates but I had the interview at SkyWest and had to wait a longer for a class date and in the mean time I needed money. so I worked delivery sprinkler supplies till my class date at SkyWest. We all need a job and money so I understand your situation. My point being SkyWest is worth the wait.

Denver -- giving up 9+ months seniority wouldn't be very smart unless your crystal ball says we won't be hiring at all during that time.
Call HR, get a jet class, do something else until then.
