This pilot group won't strike, so the ALPA power only goes so far. But, the company doesn't want too much labor strife and drama, so there will be a compromise that both sides can claim victory.

And why won't they strike?
God this gets so old. The good thing and the bad thing about "process" now is it takes so long to get to the point of a strike everyone is ready to go. In the last few years point me to a mainline pilot group that had not voted to strike.
This group is no different. Every group has their non members or non lanyard types WE ARE NOT DIFFERENT.
Until VA came along we had the largest yes vote for ALPA so I don't buy that this group won't go on strike.
