So did AAG management catch ALPA asleep at the wheel with the PSA deal?
And has ALPA finally awakened, (thanks to the efforts of the Eagle MEC and the ill-timed soul cleansings of Jeff Smisek and Rev. Bedford)? Does ALPA realize that they now hold the power, after a decade of being pushed around, stalled, stonewalled, delayed, ignored, and abused by management and the bankruptcy courts?
Has ALPA finally realized that there will be no other airline capable of staffing a large order of larger regional jets at concessionary rates,.....UNLESS ALPA ALLOWS IT???
And more importantly, has AAG management overplayed their hand with the PSA deal and *embarrassed* ALPA and will AAG management pay a price for embarrassing ALPA so badly in the PSA deal?
In my opinion, like the Japanese in WWII, AAG management may have won the first battle (PSA),......but they will now lose the war, (unless ALPA accepts defeat again).
To ALPA, IBT, and any other regional airline union,......you now hold the power. Never forget how the management has treated you over the past 12 years.
