Actually, I have been watching the saviors picking up trips. Very few scabs, numerous mid to late 90 hire pilots flying in the right seat. There also have been a lot of Instructors that were not from that "era". I have also noted a lot of vjm with junior first officers with the scarlet J in the reserve pool.
Kugel your ALPA/SCAB rant and correlation makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. I think the SCABS are all acting with an "I told you so" attitude about ALPA and none of them seem to care about atonement or forgiveness. After witnessing the total disaster and horrific representation that has been laced with scandals with ALPA, I tend to agree with their views about ALPA. Which by the way are the same as yours.
At some point our pilots are going to have to stop looking at the SCAB scapegoat for the problems within CAL ALPA and ALPA in general. The union has become completely impotent and dysfunctional. It starts at the top with ALPA National with grossly out of touch leadership combined with a bloated organizational structure paying salaries that are shocking and insulting to the membership.
The problems continue with a weak MEC that seems more willing to partner with management then protect it's own internal customers. Then, we now have entrenched pilots on trip loss that will do anything to avoid going back to flying the line.
look at all the resignations lately. We are losing very good people because those running the club don't care about true unionists. They only care about themselves.
