The company will take that metric and run to the courts to get TRO or some other nonsense because pilots stopped picking up trips.

ALPA will never direct pilots to “work to rule”, don’t look for that message from ALPA because it’ll never come. We’re a year past amendable and each pilot is going to have to make an individual decision about what is in his or her best interest.

Just saying keep comments in the “I” rather than “we” category of should or should not.

No, ALPA will never specifically direct work to rule, but the flavor of any comm will be scrutinized.

As for a substandard TA (actually AIP), I hope it never leaves the room the MEC is meeting in.
