I know there was some court case about the TWA merger IRT ALPA representation, and you assert that they were somehow sacrificed so that APA would join ALPA. How do you know that it wasn't APA that insisted that they be offered employment and not merged? Sounds like a great plan on steering an ISL your direction.

Anyway, water under the 10+ years bridge now, and I hope the pilots at AA can continue to raise the bar and profession through APA so that the ALPA carriers can follow.
