I submit that ALPA National Attorneys are not even ALPA members. They are not pilots, do not pay dues and have no right of representation by our Reps. They are staff counsel with a hell of a conflict of interest. A conflict which they should ethically stated up front.
There is no conflict of interest because ALPA will not acknowledge one. Admitting there's a problem is the first step.
