Idk. Whatever ALPA.
I don't read ALPA mail. I thought bluer might have tried to contact our MEC and was told he was in Norway. Yes some "Cabotage" type meetings going on there right now. Mostly maritime industries but could in the long run affect aviation. I would imagine cheap foreign labor that cannot organize a union would decimate ALPA and other unions. But, after ALPA agreed to sign off on PSA's concessions and that contract is running down the line of ALPA backed carriers. They might of signed there death nail way down the road. No decent intelligent American will come and spend all that money on flight training to start a career at these wages they have implemented. Especially if the hiring trend slows again via the economy or an age 67 rule implementation.
