And you want to play more hardball? Frankly, I think it's disgusting how poorly we treated our employees. Expecting even more blood out of that turnip is crazy.
Airline pilots have taken cut after cut over the past ten years, and the number of pilots at the mainline level, and now even at the regional level has been reduced by a similar level within ALPA.
The irony here is that you are criticizing and cheerleading for ALPA in the same post.
I noticed the Air Tran pilots voted for this resolution even though you won't be in ALPA when this takes effect...Your MEC should have abstained from this vote....
