They all suck or did you not realize that? Who do the 19000 regional pilots go to? The unions are just a tool for management in their whipsaw games.
Born in Dubai!? Ignorance is bliss.
(see TP's post)
Carry on.
Yeah, ignorance IS bliss. TP is being a bit coy and knows exactly what I'm talking about. Nothing like a little Sharia law to keep everyone enjoying the "good life" in the UAE, eh?
My union at my airline seems to be doing a pretty good job. Surely 19,000 regional pilots (are there that many?) could get together and start their own "Regional Airline Pilots Association" and show the rest of us how it's done? Perhaps you could spearhead the drive and become its first leader and show us all what trade unionism is all about? In my many years of union volunteerism, I've found the guys with the biggest mouths are usually the ones that are afraid to step forward and show the rest of us how it should be done.
