Have you guys ever voted no? Your chief pilot used to be a big part of your union. You voted in a subpar contract with mediocre pay and now you are watching midcon flying being farmed out. From your previous posts, you are a company man. I have a hard time imagining you saying anything else.

Flame baiting aside, what really is the opinion on the line at Alaska about this? The disparity in opinion of what AAG has planned for the future between Alaska and Horizon is quite interesting. Lots of Horizon people feel that they "deserve" this flying, but I see it at detrimental to the industry as a whole to farm out midcon flying like this to "regionals." Is that opinion shared at Alaska? Anyone over there beating the drum for scope?

The entire pilot group is ambivalent to short(ish) haul market expansion? Maybe the majority doesn't care. I'm curious what it will take for that to change. That's an awful lot of trust in a company that has gotten really into CPA's and FFD agreements in the past five years.
