I would pay more out of my pocket for in house vs. 2% to ALPA.
I would gladly pay 5k out of pocket as part of a start up contribution for in-house representation as opposed to bringing Alpa on property. I think majority of pilots feel we need representation of some sort and Alpa just happens to be the easiest/cheapest/quickest option right now. I think we owe ourselves more than that.
