I understand that all it takes is 50% + 1.

I also back ALPA and not DPA. I've made that clear.

But myself and many others have ALPA on the short leash.

Oh, and I have more than one item that I'd vote no for. I have listed them here before.

I have seen your types before T. Fearful and overwrought with apprehension. They have past the apex of their airline career and are headed toward the twilight of it. In your case,this is probably the only job outside of working for Uncle Sam that you have ever had which is further limiting. Folks like this are traditionally the epitome of single issue voters. They want the $ now, quick before more years slip past and retirement arrives.

Scope, work rules, reserve, sick leave, disability, medical coverage.... won't be around long enough to be bothered with that.
