Best thing would be to get out of ALPA. As I understand it, ALPA National was pushing the company proposal more than the company itself was. They certainly are not representing the pilots.

Sue ALPA for the money needed to start your own union just for regional pilots. It shouldn't be hard to prove DFR with the letters they sent to the Eagle MEC.
