I guess it was actually your fault I didn't get a better contract...

2001-2005 and in bankruptcy was a very different time, than 2010 with with the power of a strike. You (& ALPA )held all the cards and signed a deal for less than bankruptcy/concession contacts. That's the bottom line!
That being said I do agree its a small part of the industry, but every part counts and until ALPA realizes that we are all doomed to be under cut.
