Probably a good time for VB pilots to put something in place so they don't start losing their flying and career opportunities.
Yep with no scope it will be game over. It will be Jetstar all over again. You only have to look at the USA and what has happened in Australia to figure that out.

Here's hoping the AFAP gets it act together about this issue.

The other issue pilots might want to be aware of is the way Skywest is structured. The aircraft leasing company makes all the money while Skywest airlines runs on very tight margins. This makes wage negotiations very difficult.
