[QUOTE]It was said in the past that someone had to die before a job was offered at Skywest./QUOTE]

Yes, many moons ago in the pre-expansion days. It's good to see that despite the parent company (Ansett) collapsing, then a number of changes in management over the years, a lot of expansion and change that the company still is renowned for treating its staff well.

Some facts for a change

From the 15/9 issue of Australian Aviation Express:

Cobham Aviation Services, the parent company of National Jet Systems, has won a five year extension to a contract with Ok Tedi Mining Ltd to provide flights between Port Moresby, Lae, Madang, Manus Island and Cairns using two Dash 8s. The contract extension is valued at $50 million.
Can't be doing that badly, $10m/pa for five years is a going concern and will keep a few pilots in employment..
