True unity happens when we have common goals. ALPA has its own from time to time and we have to keep their feet to the fire. The line pilots just did that and I am proud to be part of this group.
Granted the FAR 117 negotiations were much more broad than any of us line pilots had any idea of.
Can you consider:
- We were not in Section 6 negotiations with polling data and the kind of survey resources that ALPA fires up prior to the NMB process.
- The limited survey data and feedback supported what was negotiated
- The negotiators accomplished what they were directed to do
- When it was apparent an error had been made, your MEC acted very quickly to remedy the situation.
- The outcome was a gain for you and your pilot group.
You've falsely accused me, repeatedly. I will let it go. But, it is hoped you'll slow down and take another look at the service provided for you by your reps.
