Of course he references Eagle pilots and they DID have a hand in influencing their reps in opposition to Gutierrez's beliefs, but he shouldn't have included Gutierrez in any way if he truly knew the facts. If his contact in the future is Gutierrez, that isn't much benefit to Eagle pilots per se. I understand Gutierrez only has a limited time in office, so hopefully whenever the next significant issue for all concerned arises requiring collaboration, it won't be Gutierrez or any of his sidekicks involved with mapping this pilot groups or the regional industries future.
