There will always be problems and issues. Regardless we need to be unified and involved. Debate the issues then come out unified....
Now that's funny. Most pilots I know just debate...and debate...and debate and never come out of the debate,unified or otherwise. Hence the problems and issues "de jur" never really get rectified to anyones satisfaction. And if they do, it's a "stop gap" measure at best. Witness the loss of pensions via the bankruptcy process. I thought the Continental Strike in 1983 took care of that for pilots. At least that's what I was lead to believe as a neophyte ALPA member when I joined back in 1985. But, no come to find out that all we gained in that debacle was the right to make our case before the Bankruptcy Court judge on why pensions shouldn't be abrocated and how we can keep them intact. Fat lot of good that did us. I guess there is more to it than meets the eye,but somehow Ifeel we will never know what the straight facts are and probably never will.
