*ahem* We MAG pilots will NEVER, EVER get a better contract. NEVER.
I didn't really ask about what the company is doing. I know what the company is doing. I can't for the life of me figure out why the Mesa union is becoming so weak. It has to be more than the fact that the MEC chair has changed a few times. It sounds like you guys need the help of ALPA national.
Every other ALPA pilot out there would love a blast mail or two to hear if ANY progress is being made. Until then, Mesa pilots are apathetic in improving their lives in my mind.
