Monday on Alaska News Nightly:

A classic fight is brewing over drilling for oil in Alaska, but with some modern nuance. Also, they held out for better prices, and now Kodiak's tanner crab fleet is going… crabbing. And Mt. Edgecumbe High School aviation students get access to some nifty technology.

Reports tonight from:

Liz Ruskin in Washington D.C.
Kirsten Dobroth in Kodiak
Chris Klint in Anchorage
Katherine Rose in Sitka
Ben Matheson in Bethel
and Yvonne Krumrey in Juneau
