Folks,
Please write your Union Reps (ALPA, APA, SWAPA, USAPA, etc) and let them know that this is the time to capitalize on great PR. The public HAS to know the dedication, professionalism and sacrifice this job mandates. We have lost our retirement, received 50% pay cuts and lost numerous work rules, YET we remain the consumate professionals who are there to save the day when things go wrong. Our collective UNIONs need to use this opportunity to make the American public aware of what we have endured and that we ARE NOT I repeat NOT BUS DRIVERS!!!!! Can a CEO who is paid millions of dollars fly a crippled aircraft onto the Hudson?? Time to put things into perspective! Lets take it back....
