Covid says there is no CQFO program but there basically is, except the pay is all captain pay now.

Everyone can have a different position on this but I wonder if there will ever be a new CBA at GoJet. Now is the time for Hulas to cash in his chips. The only thing of value is the 550 contract. Compass is gone, TSA is gone, and he does not want to be looked at as a 3 time loser. Would any of us? He wants a graceful way out. I believe the first week of August that Gojet will announce they will be shutting down because of the "effects of the pandemic" and inability to get pilots. The planes will be transferred over to Skywest Airlines or Air Wisconsin and Gojet's last flight will be on September 30th or October 15th.

In 2018 Skywest went to their pilots and negotiated a new contract even though the one they had was less than a year old. They needed to know the pilots would be happy in order to get new contracts for a lot of planes. Can you see Hulas paying the pilots more than just enough to show up to work?
