But you choose to sit on the sideline and just criticize instead of trying to be part of the solution. Ya ya, brand scope. Somehow you seem to have convinced yourself that you cannot do anything about it. If you aren't going to help, why don't you just keep your amusement of us to yourself while better people actually try to make things better. Maybe some others would jump in and lend a hand in the battle. Or is it that we might threaten your way of life so you find a need to be who you are? Do you have a plan B?
I have been executing my plan B for over 10 years as the handwriting has been on the wall for anyone who wanted to see it....I've seen how badly ALPA screwed this up and how ALPA along with the mainline MECs actually supported and fanned the flames of this whipsaw mess. The IACP was actually the closest to getting control, but even there the mainline pilots screwed it up.
The fact is, at least 75 percent, if not more, in this business do what is best for themselves even if it comes at the expense of others....The unions, especially ALPA and APA have contributed to this and now we have the current mess that everyone has their panties in a wad over.....It didn't happen overnight, and many on here were participants in this mess.
You keep drinking that ALPA koolaid Nevets....Someday you to will probably spit it out.....
