Teamsters has never figured out the airline division. Unfortunately, ALPA has. It's hard to find the information but ALPA learned how to totally ruin one pilot group in order to help another. Frontier versus United is an example but Braniff also felt the love. Of course having a republican as a union leader helped. Duffey and reagan were very sympatico. Duffey made sure pilots crossed on the controllers which effectively set the tone for the next 30 years.
