I don't think the signing bonus is terms of employment for a new hire.
So the company giving a bonus to someone who isn't an employee yet isn't illegal as far as I know. Now, if they go and give everyone in New Hire class currently the bonus as well, when they are hired and already a probationary member of ALPA, I can see that.
