I was actually sitting in the room when Prater was asked that very question. While I'm not happy with the "west" guys with medical issues being used as pawns, I can understand Prater's reasoning behind his actions. Childish and bitter? No. Hardball politics? Unfortunately, yes.
The fact remains, though, that the ALPA's Aeromedical service is the best one out there.
No ALPA blinders here; there's plenty I don't like about ALPA. You guys, however, are shooting yourselves in the foot in your attempt to overturn binding arbitration.
