Serious question -
What if a regional airline replaced their union with a law firm specializing in contracts, particularly aviation contracts? The regional could put the firm on retainer for the equivalent of union dues. The professional attorneys could negotiate the contracts. When a union member has a problem, he/she calls the attorneys, and if the Company was wrong, the Company pays the bill.
This would free up pilots to fly the line, and place professional litigators to deal with the Company lawyers. This would also remove the conflict of interest in having the same union represent a mainline company and its regional carriers.
