He's right. Professionals belong to a profession. The only way to improve the profession is to work together with your peers to make it happen.
SkyWest management has shown their true colors in their treatment of ASA. Believe me, SkyWest management seems to be undergoing "continuing revelation." Experimental, it is only a matter of time until your pilot group sees the same side of your management team the ASA pilots have recieved. These are the same guys - you are not being rational if you think that after they finish beating up one group of employees that they will not treat you the same. Then, when you see that SkyWest's moral compass has failed, you will realize ALPA has the best checklist for "Management AHRS failure."
Of course, if flying a jet that brings in 52% more revenue for 4% more pay strikes you as a good deal, then you might take a little more time than the rest of us to smell what we're steppin in.
