The answer to "What has ALPA done for you lately?"

[CopilotDoug]

All right... then what? Bring another entity on property, or form your own in house Union.
Either encourage USAPA to represent all air line pilots or improve the current one.

How can any Union collectively represent employees from 2 different and competing business entities? Especially when one business model is succesful and the other is not? When one group is truly considered a "career carrier" and the other is considered a "stepping stone"? When years of seniority built at one carrier don't mean squat when that carrier tanks?

you seem to blame the unusual heat on the HVAC tech....

And what if USAPA gets voted in and it benefits the pilots of USAirways? Will it still be disowned by ALPA?

Let's wait and see....

I am pretty convinced USAPA will win the nmb election, but I think they will fail as a group.

BINGO!

....no we're saying the AC is broken....and the tech can't fix it....Time for either a new AC or a new tech...or the existing tech can fix it....but continuing to have a broken AC isn't going to cut it.....

So which is it... a new AC or tech? We can't even agree on that... and now Fins is talking about re-activating the RJDC....
