This is good news for SkyWest, I guess? It's horrible news for all of us that want to get out of regional pilot purgatory and want a real job, where you are treated like an adult and earn adult-type compensation. What this tells me, is that SkyWest throwing a lot of capital out hoping that scope sections relax in the future and quotas for large regional jets increase rather than decrease. At least for DAL and UAL right now, there would not be a home for all of those 175s and MRJs under current scope language. I would hope that AA and Airways would not sell their soul to the devil and follow the lead provided by DAL and UAL. If these orders for SkyWest actually come to fruition, most of us will still be in regional pilot purgatory. Just my $.02...
