Yeah, it's real tough for ALPA to do things like crosscheck dues payment against seniority lists. You'd think a prudent MEC might want to ensure that they're receiving the correct dues. That would definitely reveal who is not paying dues and why (furlough, LTS, or already retired, etc.).

I guess it's too much to ask...

Apparently seniority is forever at NWA, even after you've retired! Now I understand!

The wise guys will have to rule by December 8 if we don't come to agreement by ourselves. Either way, at that time we will be one step away from becoming one. We have the joy of trying to merge two MEC's in a civil fashion right after the SLI.

I want tickets and at least a 3rd row seat. I think you'll get wet if you sit too close!
