This is that whole self-respect thing I just talked about. If BM really wants 4600 pilots, they're going to have to fly somewhere outside of the PNW and AK.

Even if it's totally BS, they have made the claims they want to be a player in the US. If that's the case, then the pilots need a commensurate contract to go with those aspirations.

I've never met a pilot group with such an inferiority complex in my entire career.
