When will you people come to grips with the fact that we are all in the same fight together? And then we ask ourselves why regionals and whipsaw exist. What a shame. You'd better be careful what you post here, brotha. It isn't hard for mainline recruiting to find out your identity. APC isn't as anonymous as you would like to believe. The tools for background checking at their disposal are beyond the realm of what you think is possible or even legal.

Typical KSCessnaDriver mentally. "I subconsciously hate myself for choosing Endeavor instead of SkyWest, so I will release an unprovoked passive-aggressive attack and lambast 4500 pilots whom I do not personally know or will ever make an effort to understand. Then I'll complain on every pilot forum known to man why Delta doesn't give me flow!!!!1!"

I apologize for the violation of "official APC policy" and will refrain from further improper use if the term scab per forum policy. I think anyone with the intelligence to look at the situation can understand how stINC, used their new hire usurpers to force a unionized airlines demise.

I do agree OO pilots are not scabs, but
[QUOTE=03sport007;2464927]I do agree OO pilots are not scabs. With that said, I do feel the OO pilot group has greatly benefitted from the effort and cash of their unionized peers. The Clint Eastwood trajedy that is ALPA is in itself not deserving of anyone's respect at the regional level, but the OO group's repeated refusal to support their profession in the only way possible, is shameful. Unfortunately ALPA is the only professional organization available to airline pilots, but it does have a long list of accomplishments which directly benefit pilots of OO. Just to name one- KCM would not exist without ALPA. How many OO pilots use KCM? A few is my guess.

??? You're a REGIONAL pilot! That's the whole point of BEING a regional pilot.... to be replaced when you get too expensive and comfortable. Don't like it? Move on...

The failing is not on the part of the SKW pilots. Although they may regret not having a union as attrition ramps up and outmatches recruiting, and everyone is chained to the oar.

It has nothing to do with real skywest pilots, they're along for the ride... it has to with CFI's going where the fast upgrades are.

What do you suggest they do about it? ALPA won't help that, they don't intervene in regional whipsaws. If you're a high-longevity regional pilot your days are numbered... unless you're willing to take a big pay cut.

I guess endeavor pilots are going to put themselves out of business if they pass their TA? Air Wisconsin is still in business despite their industry leading contract.
