This struggle is not just about the AA pilots, its about ALL US LABOR!!
As pilots WE have failed miserably in educating the masses how our struggle is in many ways the same struggle as teachers, firemen, police, auto industry workers, ALL pensioned employees, etc, etc.
The general public will not sympathise with OUR cause unless we educate them on how parallel ours is to "their" cause.
