I'd say us and all others that walked the line deserve a small star, a recognition, on top of the regular ALPA pin. Ask the second question to the regional pilots. Spirit pilots did their part.
Spirit pilots did their part because they were allowed to do their part. Plenty of other airlines would have done their part if they were allowed to.
When was the last time a regional airline was released to strike? Comair I believe and that was quite a while ago.
