One of ALPA’s problems was they didn’t fight for anything. Every time it came time to take a stand, they just said grieve it and we will see what the arbitrator says. They are still individual MEC’s that short of financing didn’t do anything to support us. In my short time at AA, we are a much stronger union, just not as large. I believe APA will be effective in securing a good contract. After all, we are APA. Stay engaged
