This is incorrect. Let me fill you in. The gojet "union" was brought in by the initial bunch of management pilots in order to head off an attempt at ACTUAL unionization later. They were chosen as the most useless union the company could come up with. (Note: they are NOT represented by the airline division of IBT, but rather a local for parking lot attendants in STL). ALPA would love to get a hold of the gojet pilot group and reintegrate them with TSA. The company, of course, would never let that happen.
