Unfortunately, notwithstanding the whole Midwest seniority dispute issue and the backstabbing of 8 now 4 Midwest pilots who acted in their own self interest and lied, ALPA would have been a nice addition. Honestly though, you have to admit, ALPA, never really seemed to care enough to even woo or send an informational packet in the mail. Why should they get the votes then? There was really only one clear cut choice in this instance, FAPA. You just make the best decision you can and hope for the best.
Agreed 100% - I just hope we can be flexible and wise enough to do WHATEVER is necessary to preserve our work rules. - even if it means snuggling up with some not so savory entity. This is one case where I'm afraid the ends DO justify the means. I have a feeling if it got ugly, FAPA itself would fall it's sword to preserve the integrity of this pilot group - perhaps I'm naive.
