But what is done is done. No changing that perception now. All you can do is tell them what this is really about is pattern bargaining. AS has set the pattern, and you’ll sell out the industry if you agree on any less. Nor can you expect the B6 guys to fight for our work rules if we don’t hold up our end on payscale.

I am referring to senior captains I fly with.
