Maxjet, you and I come from the same place, different times. I came later, after they got the scope clause to prevent what had happened. If you recall, ALPA is not a union, but refers to itself as a “pilot association”. It’s no secret that it’s every pilot group for themselves and national just wants your due money, no unity. Ironically, the thing you hate most about 1224, stems from having strong unity. Either have too much of it with 1224, or none at all. If Fed Ex was to benefit with our demise, or ATI’s, you better bet ALPA will give advice leading to that situation. Comair?
ALPA is teamsters, but with limp dicks instead of baseball bats.
Please name anything that 1224 has done for us that would have not been done at any other Union.
I am reading about how ALPA took various Airlines and sacrificed them for the interest of another airline. This I don’t agree with at all. The irony is that 1224 has done it to us, and now Omni. Why is it OK for the Teamsters to do it?
There are no competing airlines in the ACMI segment at ALPA. This is why I think it is the safe place to be for an ACMI carrier
