One of the Sky West fellas said that the Skyway drivers will be given some kind of hiring preference. But they will have to start at the bottom of the stack.
The Skyway guys and gals are real pros. I hope that they find something better. They deserve it. With the pilot shortage, there could be a worse time to be looking for that next ride.

That is better than what the Mesaba guys git when they were laid off. My buddy got a bill for $89k for his pilot training. They stated since he left the airline with under a year of service he was responsible. He brought it to the union's attention and Mesaba backed off. But cripes that is sleazy.
