Go ahead and continue your ignorant ranting. ALPA has effected more positive changes for our industry than any independent pilot union (or non-union group) could ever dream of doing. Anyone advocating for the demise of ALPA truly belongs in a different industry. I'm not thrilled by the recent changes related to the 401k; however, I understand why it happened. This merely leveled the playing field on dues contribution.
