Of course I believe it. It explains why things are for the most part "good" at the majors and "sh*tty" at the regionals. Same union, different so called service. Alpa simply doesn't represent the interests of regional pilots. The company literally rapes you while the union is worried about increasing the SSP from 4 to 5.

It's always the wrong priorities. We shouldn't even exist. Alpa should be fighting for our demise, not scheduling fee for departure interview session tips seminars.

I feel like everybody is blind to this. Stockholm Syndrome. Alpa enriches themselves at regional pilots expense. Legacy airline pilots enrich themselves at regional pilot expense.

Alpa is like the democratic party. They offer the illusion of bettering yourself but they can't really help you otherwise there would be no reason to exist. They have to keep you down in order to serve a purpose.
