Once you get SFO in March, is that temp too? I'm asking if it's only for March and they send you to another base after.
With gap between ground and sim, wouldn't you lose some study/sim material? Or are things very much solidified in memory that long gap won't affect the deferral. I Would hate to study things twice with long gap.
Thanks!

As for the break... You have to put in some personal study time, otherwise you will likely have a rough time in Sims...

I'd be surprised if they displaced people. I think they're smart enough in SGU to not rock the boat too hard. I think they'll suck up the over staffing and let attrition take care of it. Just my prediction.
Though I wouldn't mind if some crj guys came back to the Midwest. MSP and ORD guys are just getting hammered right now.

At least they didn't use any cheesy techno/EDM music.........

SkyWest does not displace pilots, they can but they won’t. If there’s not a vacancy they won’t create one for a more senior pilot, otherwise there wouldn’t have been so many pilots passed over for upgrade because they restricted their standing bids to SLC CA only or something else. In my 9 years there, which included the most stagnant time in SkyWest history (mid 2008 – mid 2010), we were ridiculously short on Bro FOs and absurdly fat on RJ FOs but yet SKW never displaced a single pilot. From 2008-2010 SkyWest could have easily furloughed, displaced and downgraded pilots to save money and be more profitable but they didn’t.

This April will almost for sure see early 2011 hires in upgrade class. Food for thought.

I'm from one of the early 2011 classes, fingers crossed! I don't think I'll get this one, but hopefully something this summer. Keep thinking something crazy will happen to jinx it though... My luck in this profession sucks!

Are you delusional, shortsighted or just narrow-minded? Also for clarification are you calling SkyWest a "bottom feeder?"
