I think their signing bonus (retro pay...which SkyWest doesn't get because BH decided he didn't want to pay it) will offset the dues for several years. Furthermore, the offer includes first year pay that is much better than SkyWest, a commuter clause and it looks like scope protection (this is huge in my opinion...if it is voted in, SkyWest upgrades may slow down. Congratulations ASA...it is good to see a pilot group with some unity.
