It goes without saying that the addition of Alaska Airlines Inc management pilots to the Horizon Air Industries roster will have no immpact on scope negotiations. It is a number one priority for the pilots at Alaska Airlines.
AS pilots need to grow some balls and limit this infestation of "76 seat jets". Its seriously the goal of AAG to continue the growth of E-175 flying. Not good for any AS pilot.
