The Alaskan arbitration made a significant reference to the size of their airline. If the new F9/NK airline is going to be the #5 airline in size then our contract, based upon the latest ruling, should reflect that same fact. My post wasn't a case of using B6 or AS as a baseline. I was using the arbitration ruling as a justification as to where our contract should land relative to 1-4 and 6-7.
