Duty rig is based on schedule.
The TA has not been released so nothing is really in detail yet. We should get details this next week or two and see if it is a good deal. Looks ok.
I think one thing is clear. The company finally decided that they needed to finalize a deal, and the union realized that it was time to get it done. It looks like we got a lot of what was asked for but concessions in some key areas.
This is food for thought. They SKW would never have agreed to scope protection if ASA was going to shrink. Hence I think a part of getting this done is allowing us to grow. Since our costs are in line and I think you will see a HUGE increase in performance now, it will be really interested to see what happens between Skywest and ASA. Skywest has enjoyed the run for the last few years now we will see how long that lasts. There are lots of rumours of new bases out west and new flying for ASA.
What I do know is that as a 32 year old 7 year ASA captain this is good news for me. I am just now waiting for my $10K bonus check
