SkyWest actually sponsors and pays for the visa as long as the person is eligible.
One of the provisions on the visa is that they can only be employed by SkyWest.
I guess since they are paying the person you can't call it enslavement?
But it's pretty close!

There is no cost to SKYW as no labor certification is required.

Have you read what the E3 visa entails? pretty sure the fees are less than $1000. Good for 2 years, can be extended as many times as possible. If they change jobs new employer must file a new one.

yes, it is super easy. The application fee is $270. That's it. No cost to the employer and you can just re-apply for another employer. No time limit.

Did they take the back door away from us? Block times are showing on Skedplus but not the actual pairings

This is proof in and of itself of shenanigans!
There would be no other cause to fix the backdoor.

G'day guys and girls!
Wasn't getting a reply in the other thread so i'm dropping a line here..
Just joined up to APC today to see what all the goss is...
I start with Skywest in April and I had a couple of question for any current E-175 pilots in here....
1 - What base people would recommend for the best chance in getting plenty of hours? I'm not worried about upgrade time and its not so I can move on, but so I can hone my new skills after coming out of IOE.
2 - Having not done any Australian ATPL subject I'm thinking about signing up to Sheppard Air to get studying the ATP theory. Would you recommend this or is the training sufficient during the CTP ATP course they run? Also how long is the CTP ATP course?
3 - There is an app online called the E-175 systems app. Has anyone used it and what did they think?
Thanks in advance and I look forward to flooding your radio waves with my accent haha!
