And I'd say that an overwhelming majority of the regional pilots at Pinnacle are satisfied with their ALPA representation too.
now I've heard it all.

1. Now that you have read my rant....IMO, there is no way you can compare what has happened where you are with where the SKYW pilots are or for that matter any passenger carrier.
2. If being part of the team is so great, why isn't UPS ALPA? I will bet the first guy who stands up in SDF and screams that ALPA is the way to go leaves with a few bruises and a limp.
3. ALPA has failed to represent all pilots to the betterment of all. They have successes from time to time, but their successes generally benefit one segment of their representation and hurt another. ALPA cannot represent competing interests and win. Anyone who has lived through 20 years of ALPA and has 4 uniforms in their closet is speaking from a place you will never be.
4. Instead of criticizing those less fortunate than you, perhaps thanking your lucky stars you aren't where they are or have been would be in order.

I don't get it either... but then again - these are the type of folks that voted for Bush... twice!
It just absolutely freaking BLOWS MY MIND to see all the anti union pilots on here!
I mean, correct me if I am wrong here but IMO if you don't want a union, you are basically saying you trust management. Can management and trust really be used in the same sentence these days? Don't people see the crooks for who they are? Maybe I should start smoking whatever they are....
I just don't get it. WTF???? Management sticks together, why don't pilots? Management must be loving these people.
If it were up to management, every employee outside of management would make minimum wage and receive no benefits.
Rez, Occam, and PCL can scream to the heavens that it is we who control the destiny of the union, but until the union protects those who stick their neck out, there will be no participation.

Of course, you do have the perspective of previous non-union work...but could part of the reason you see union vs. non-union the way you do be because you are working for a successful union gig?

Friends don't let friends work at Pinnacle!!!
But ALPA represents you well? Pinnacle is the worst regional out there, you have said it yourself. How come ALPA doesnt come in and save the day?
