All that fragmentation language does is protect the jobs of ASA pilots.

So if you were a Skywest pilot you wouldn't have a crisis of conscience knowing you were taking another airline's aircraft and causing the loss of the jobs that go with them?

Of course the ASA TA will influence the vote at Skywest. Folks at Skywest have said "ALPA better produce for ASA", and even if everything else is equal, the higher hourly payrates at ASA will probably sway some votes in favor.
