Thus the insults.

Not making yourself very distinguished here slow. We can all see right through you.

Lots of lawsuits like this and there will be lots more. Someone always wants to blame someone or something when things turn south. In the end they are almost always settled for a few pennies and cash to the lawyers. The chances of ALPA or their insurance agent paying large checks to TWA pilots is not very high. Keep in mind one important principle of the law. To get damages you have to show where and how you were damaged and convert that to a financial loss. Had TWA pilots not accepted the APA offer would they be better or worse off today. Anyone who knew TWA's status at the merger can probably answer that.
