The AA MC will autonomously and independent of APA leadership argue on behalf of pre-merger AA pilots, and USAPA will argue on the behalf of East pilots should a West committee come to fruition (who will argue for the West to I'm sure include the Nic) or the entire group including West, if the PAB denies APA the legal right to award the West separate representation.
I am just blown away that you seem to have become so intelligent lately.
The layout of the playing filed matters more than the players. The status quo is contractually defined and will not be submitted for arbitration. Anyone participating in the arbitration will have necessarily accepted that.
It will be fair and equitable. Everyone will live happily ever after.
