The whipsaw will never end until mainline takes back the flying. Anything else is a complete waste of time.

I don't believe Endeavor is the best performing regional. Regardless, Endeavor will wilt on the vine until it dies. In two years it will be no more without a large change. The regional model is dead.

As a Horizon guy, I wouldn't be worried. What do we have to fight for, contract wise? Where do we lag behind other regionals, with regards to compensation? Perhaps a better min. guarantee? As far as being whip-sawed against anyone else, we've only played the role of the victim. And as a wholly-owned, our management team will never bid for flying that isn't from Alaska. This question was actually recently asked and answered, and the answer from management was "Why would we use Alaska Air Group resources to serve a competitor?"

Horizon is not a threat to anyone in the regional airline industry. I'm not saying that the MEC over here would object to participating, but rather likely wasn't even approached.

Damn straight!

Bears lanyard or sick call. Done.

Well, we mooch off Delta's teet, so it's not hard to figure out why.
