......but I actually have to step up and defend this guy. His - so called - "brothers" at ALPA actually threatened his wife and children because he was wearing his hat to work. I think he did the right thing by going home to ensure the safety of his family. You can call it hurt feelings, but he should not have his 1.95% go to a union that threatens his family. Another case of ALPO out of control.
Yes, I did mean to spell it ALPO.
Unless you have any proof of such a ridiculous accusation, I call bull$hit. I have no doubt that other pilots approached the pilot himself and told him to take off his damned hat (as they should have), but I don't believe for a second that they threatened his wife and children.
