You must not work in this business if you don’t understand the value of scope.
The only people who get any value from scope clauses are mainline pilots. No one else "in this business" gets any value from scope clauses whatsoever. Prove me wrong.
And at the end of the day, the pilots are the highest trained group of employees that take the longest amount of time to replace. So without pilots, you don't have an airline.
The purpose of an airline (other than making profit) is to relocate people from place A to place B, not to give well-paid jobs to pilots. Without passengers, or more exactly paying customers, there are no airlines and no paid pilots for commercial flights.
The artificial rules that lead to uneconomic and unecologic use of resources are more than idiotic, they are harmful and detrimental for the humankind.
Some pilots show incredible arrogance here. I hope that they are just a minority.
