Take this deal!!!
It buys us 2 years to get our act together. Yes, we don't have our act together.
CAL Captain John Prater become head of ALPA several years ago and he was going to "Take it back" and make pilots respectable again. Well he didn't. Ask him, ALPA is obsolete, broken, and can't be fixed.The ALPA tool box is worn out and holds nothing. The ALPA playbook is from doing business in the 1970's it isn't going to change. If you want an industry leading contract then you need to start thinking out side the box and start a new Union just for us UAL pilots. NOW IS THE TIME.
Let's see who the the real leaders of our pilot group with a new vision rise to the occasion. Let's take the ALPA pin off our ties and stick it on our ass so everytime we sit in a Pilot seat it hurts and reminds us of where the real problem is.
What do you say Dave F.?
