And bully for the supplemental freight folks whose phones ring off the wall this time of year. My pay stub was rewarded on numerous occasions by the 'company' that advertised "when it absolutely has to be there overnight". The down side was that phone was ringin right up to Xmas eve, if the weather sucked! That old industry adage, "why bother callin' about the weather, you're goin' anyway" was not coined by an airline, FEDEX or UPSCO pilot.
When things show it you ground it until fixed good job Alaska for doing so no matter the season.
