I see alot of posts here and elsewhere claiming that your hatred of ALPA is not tied to the Nic Award. But that its rooted in ALPA's past wrongs to the AAA pilot group (most of which I understand were ratified by the membership).
However at least at this point it seems that most east guys want an improved contract and at least pay parity. Being that ALPA is poised to bend over backward and spend a lot of money to achieve just that and more, why not just let them do that and you could have a tremendously better contract by the end of the year.
Then unload them!!!
Could it be that the only reason for usapa is to try and circumvent a Binding Arbitration result.
Since it is obvious to most that this is your true intention. Could you explain to us "rookies" just exactly how does one overturn a Binding Arbitration Award or are your lawyers telling you to zip it till later??
No bait here just curious why you wouldn't take the short road to more money and a better quality of life.
