The threat to everyones career IS Alpa. Look at all those regional jets running around now. Ask the USAir guys how it worked out for them. Don't forget Eastern, Pan Am, TWA, and oh, a few others.

We've been getting whipsawed for years and ALPA has stood by. I understand what you are trying to say coors, I do, but you have to educate yourself on the industry and ALPA first.

NAI is no more a threat than other foreign companies (BMW and Airbus) doing bidness in the USA. It's a threat to the incumbent carriers who've been getting away with too much for too long. Competition is a good thing. Go read about the hysteria when Southwest started in 1971/72. You would have thought we were being attacked by Godzilla.

Anyhoo, just some points of discussion, not personal.

Again, Happy Holidays. Watch whats going on in Aleppo to put things into some perspective.
