ALPA can be sued if it doesn’t represent the pilot group fairly. So it cannot negotiate one demographic’s future benefits away to improve another without opening itself to legal liability.

You guys who want a meaningful pension increase are going to have to accept the split retirement. Otherwise, you’re going to screw everyone out of a lot of money.
