I am still dumbfounded by a pilot group that believes management!
Again it's the senior pilots ensuring their get theirs just like the "baby" generation sucking up the economic marrow of the US.
I'm pretty sure our ALPA leaders knew the companies plans for ERJ-175s during our last contract negotiations. Problem was not enough Alaska pilots cared.
Now that there are 58 76 seat ERJs on their way plus another 30 options which could very easily be turned into 120 seat 195s
Routes that once had a 737 are being replaced with 175s in Portland so now the Senior pilots are starting to care. It's sad that that's what it takes to get people's attention but at least more people are starting to realize the threat.
