This is correct. Guys already there are all good to keep renewing Visas as they desire but sadly no more new hire Aussies anymore. Have heard there are a few very disappointing reasons behind this unfortunately involving guys and gals misrepresenting their experience in their log books and at interview and going over with inadequate hours while attempting to slip through the cracks. Second hand info from some mates there as I don't work for them but would truly hope that it is not true.
It was brought up in the past on this thread about people knowingly trying to jump through US consulate hurdles and get E3 Visas without sufficient qualifications, so perhaps if these claims are true, things have finally come to a head at SkyWest. You have to wonder who may be next to cut the Aussies
IF these stories are true?
Any SKW pilots here know more?
