With all due respect, "they" appear to have turned you off permanently from any unity. You paint a dismal picture of all East pilots, You say "They" about bringing the whole pilot group together. Won't happen, it takes "you" and "all" to bring it together. My observation is that the East and West won't come together, rather will attack each other till a bad ending for everyone in the industry. We are are own worst enemies in the end. Something management cannot do without our willing participation.
Looks like NWA and DAL going down the same road. ALPA sure is not taking a forceful leadership role in this meltdown. For all our sakes, I wish you all the best. But you paint a grim picture of future unity, so I'll take your word, "They" won't pull it off, But we "all" could.
