I couldn't disagree with you more! Most of my friends at VX are terrified of a merger with AS. They like VX and the culture that has been established there. They also know that because of their junior longevity that they could really take a haircut with regards to the impending ISL.

Two great pilot groups coming together to dominate the west coast is definitely exciting!

You're right, I don't overnight there much and most my time is spent down south, SAN, LAX, etc. Congrats on the merger :)
