CFI Unions
Ok, Here it goes. I am trying to get a CFI Union thread started here. I have been advised by the moderators that this may be polarizing, so lets try to keep it professional here.
I have seen very few schools out there that have a CFI union. Some reasons stated for the lack of representation are that the Instructors don't stay long enough to get it done. There is a school in Phoenix that teaches ab initio students for a foreign carrier that has a union, with a good contract!! I am surprised at the lack of unionized schools out there. It would seem that any employee would give some strong consideration to joining. There may be many people who will not want to be represented by a union while working as a CFI. Who really knows.
Lets here from people who are instructing to hear opinions on this and share some ideas.
