You mean all the RJ pilots in ALPA?
Yeah, sure....keep telling yourself that.
More like the FDX pilots who are MUCH happier in ALPA than solo....
The DAL pilots who keep making gains inside AND outside of Section 6
The AK pilots who make near top wages for 737, and seeing a net gain of
20-30 airframes over the next 4 years.
The Spirit pilots who were supported in a strike and made HUGE gains with ALPA
HA pilots who have a solid contract, defended very well by ALPA through a sham bankruptcy, and now growing and steady advancement and hiring for their pilots.
...and though its NOT nearly enough, the UCAL CBA that will FINALLY get the road to recovery started for UAL pilots and improve the CAL pilots lives considerably also.
OR
The Comair pilots who took 3 rounds of concessions and still shut down
The Pinnacle pilots who are about to take 9% pay cuts and see their list cut by 2/3
ExpressJet pilots (UAL side) who will probably see their flying and jobs cut to accommodate the new ALPA negotiated UCAL scope clause and the likely reduction of airframes and block hours.
Who has more reason to approve of ALPA?
