Personally I do not think a "blessing" from ALPA justifies what Gojet pilots did to their brothers and sisters at TSA when they took jobs from pilots being furloughed just to speed up their own transition into the left seat.
Instead, all it shows - once again - is that ALPA truly does not care about their own - especially when it comes to smaller, more vulnerable airlines.
The entire airline industry needs a de-Baathification, or de-ALPAfication process - USairways pilots just started their battle - I wish them well.
Just my worthless 1/2¢ on the subject...
