Also check in what Group 757's are included in ALPA contracts.

Ask ALPA negotiators, with BK experience, for their impressions of the overall result.
And, then ask the same or similar questions of APA. The truth is "united we stand; divided we fall." and APA is nothing more than a division for reasons of self interest. Rejoining ALPA would make our profession and your jobs more secure. Without question ALPA is flawed, but the more divided the labor force, the weaker their hand.
As to BK, we should look to the Rail Roads. Pensions that transfer and are the same for all carriers . . . what a concept . . . it was all about the pensions.
