While it is sad, you cannot say it's anything new in this industry. Did you not see what happened to Eastern, Pan Am, TWA, Branniff, etc. pilots?

They were all Major Airlines, not 50 seat RJ operators.

I call it the Churn Game, and the airline CEO's have been playing it for a very long time. Delta's Richard Anderson was a Lawyer at CAL, working for Frank Lorenzo back when they took Eastern apart.

When ever one group stands up to Management;

Schwack!

Chopped up and sold off.

So, what's ALPA National's PLAN going forward??

They haven't had a plan to deal with this whipsawing, since deregulation in 1978.

Why not?

How many "Strategic Planing Committee" guys does ALPA National employ? And why? Where is the National SOS? That is the only 'hammer' we have, but there has NEVER been any talk of actually using it.

And don't be surprised when Cabotage raises it's ugly head in the next 10 years...
