As someone not privy to the details....how did this go down? I thought ALPA national can only assist ALK MEC in preparing and perhaps selling a TA, but how can the "jam down a TA" that 80% are against despite the MEC?
Did ALPA National impose the TA upon the ALK group? Not sure how that could work since ALPA is actually just an association, and not truly a union.
