Sorry. Previous company was directly affected by your pilot group’s willingness (often enthusiasm) to be non union management worshipping hacks. My career progression was directly affected by anyone who was a part of that.

It was real fun being a union worshipping hack trying to affect change. I have stories.

I mostly just lurk in the shadows now. I haven't posted in years. But I'll second this. Go talk to anyone who was former ASA/XJT (I was) about how they feel about anything SkyWest.

ASA went from making $540m, to losing money very quickly when "Chip-away-Chip" took the reigns.

I won't disagree. But that said, you gonna call out fellow ALPA regionals that took lower pay to gain and/or secure more flying? Cause that happened. More than once.

Capitalism baby. SkyWest is a capitalists dream

"Oh hey, it's that 'union guy' again". Proud to have been referred to that in the annals of St. George history.

A union-buster's wet dream, indeed.

"Hey let's spend our own money on bargaining and ignore RLA! (then never keep the deal anyway, lmao)"

It was a rather adroit busting of the Air Line Pilots Association in the service of ASA/XJT pilots, by Inc., aided and abetted by the OO pilot group.

Very lucky that left MLG took the brunt of the it. That could have been a lot worse for the aircraft or Godforbid some one was working around their plane with their back turned...

How can I get insta clout if I’m not filming my 8000th “have you ever wondered what an airline pilot does on a preflight inspection” clip for my stories?

I flew this N-number last night and was looking for any sign of repair in that area (ex. shiny new paint around the MLG door etc. Didn't notice any difference- it's been dirtied up enough already I guess.
