SKYW ALPA convert

[CoAlpha]

After seeing what they pulled out in CA, and with what MN said, way to go!! They just converted one of the most anti ALPA pilots in the group. Now for spite and fair representation my card has been sent in!

game over.

Hmm, how do we know all of the closet ALPA supporters in SAPA aren't sabotoging the process just so SAPA looks more ineffective? Of course, our pilot group is so apathetic, nobody bothers to check up on these guys. I wish they'd publish the actual minutes from every meeting. I don't think anyone on either side is telling the full truth.

Welcome to the extreme minority!

 

[Ski Bum]

Glad to have you onboard.

If anything the MN letter makes it painfully clear that SAPA is not the PILOT'S representative, but rather a representative of managment.

Where is this letter, on his website?

 

[Burt Reynolds]

It was sent to all pilots via SWOL

amazing that ME and JB and DL testified on behalf of skywest inc. in support of sapa. i thought sapa was a pilot group. why would management have such a vested interest in having these guys testify in court? and to not invite the president? this is going to be very interesting....i for one am glad MN did what he did, finally a pres standing up and telling the pilot group how jacked up sapa can be.

Thats one mistake skyw will regret. That was by far the last straw for me, who do these clowns think they are, and what compensation did they get for stabbing the pilot group in the back? I know I probably wont be on property when the skyw pilot group gets its first contract, but this is no way to represent a pilot group.

I doubt you will be the only one. The SKYW pilot group was split down the middle prior to this announcement. This will definitely turn the tide in ALPA's favor.

Yep, SKW screwed the pooch on this one. Having the Executive Board testify for SKW exposed SAPA for what it is, a representative organization to control and manipulate SKW employees. Or as some call it, the good ole' boys club. Obviously, MN isn't included. There are a couple bad apples in SAPA. Fortunately, many of the good apples (reps) work very hard to represent the pilots interests despite the "structured" organization of SAPA.

We might as well have BH on the SAPA Executive Board.

Even more amazing is what some of the testimony apparently was and the stealth tactics. Gosh, so we wonder how we got such a good pay proposal after all that hard work SAPA put in. This is too bad. Not a good way to inspire or keep faith in anyone involved.

dont get me wrong, there are some guys (and one gal) on sapa that really try hard to do what is best for the group. however, i think the structure is what the problem is. there is an apparent conflict of interest, and when 3 of the reps testify on behalf ot skywest to help keep sapa around, then that apparent conflict of interest seems less apparent and more realistic.

anyway, fun times...i hope i am not around too much longer to see how it all ends up!

 

[FmrFreightDog]

Ok, since I'm obviously the only one who doesn't know what you guys are talking about, what happened?

Check your SWOL. All info is in there
