Article 3, Section F and Article 6, Section M is an area that SkyWest pilots are trying to keep from giving the company.
My understanding, if I read if correctly, is that your Company will be able to reassign you as needed from your awarded trip - reflow.
For us (SkyWest), we see that as circumventing seniority and the bid process. What's the point of bidding for trips if the Company can just reassign you to whatever they want or need covered?
The real crappy part of this LBFO is that you either vote yes or no. It would be nice to have some negotiations made to this policy that your Company has decided to write and "stick" to you. Much like SkyWest's last pay package vote, this is a good starting point, not an ending one.

No doubt that you guys are among the best in the industry and Bedford may actually believe it, but then why has it taken 8 years to treat and pay you as such?
Please make an educated and well informed vote, whether it's yes or no, the pilots within the regional industry have earned it. Don't waste the effort.
Good luck.
