Boilerup, unfortunately Nevets is right.
I think our difficulty as pilots to strike legally is one of the things that leaves ALPA and the majority of unions struggling to fight an uphill battle.
Strike, or the threat of one, is one of the strongest weapons a union has in it's arsenal, however our line of work does maintain a strict protection against these types of actions.
Everything else aside, creating a National Seniority List would require too much energy and effort while still throwing some under the bus.
Bottom line the list would not be fair and equitable to every pilot.
What is the benchmark we would use to rank and file ourselves? Age? Total Time? Experience? Airline Seniority Compounded by Company Strength?
Too many variables in this equation to make this work, anyway you look at it.
