Pushing away from this makes pilot unions weaker, not stronger. Hindsight being 20/20, a national seniority list and single union would have solved many of these issues today.

It's sad reading this thread because you have 3 great pilot groups, notice I didn't say airlines, I don't care for the airlines. It's the groups that matter. Anyway, you have three groups of pilots that all fly for the same company that pays the bills. "DHL". As a single group of pilots under one banner, there is more power there than you realize and here we sit watching one group willing to through that away.

Having come from a Union family and seeing how pilots make unions and associations work, you realize quick that pilots as a whole have no clue, absolutely zero, on how we should be working. Pretty pathetic. If a long shoreman realized what we do to each other, he would say you all might as well be management.
