That's hilarious, because ALPA is responsible for the entire mess. Had they done due diligence, had they done their f&^k!ng JOB, there would still be a pension.
It seems you guys log on here and bash USAPA just to make yourselves feel better. It's in fact USAPA that is making a real effort to finally represent this group, something ALPA quite OBVIOULSY wasn't doing.
One of your mature, professional pilots asked on here for evidence that USAPA was a union. From what EVERYONE else in the industry sees, (everyone else but the former America Who? Airlines pilots on FI.com,) USAPA has made huge progress and is up and running. The APA certainly sees our efficacy in dealing with 1549, and every other independant pilot union is working with us. The mythical hatred of USAPA is truely an FI.com thing, fueled by the lottery ticket called Nicolau. All USAPA is really doing is trying to unravel many years of ALPA's stupidity and negligance, and this latest finding with the pension is just another example. The corrupt and inept handling of our seniority is just one more.
