I thought you got rid of them because you did not like the arbitrator's decision about seniority integration. A national seniority list would have avoided the cannibalism some USAirways pilots are now engaged in.
ALPA is no longer ALPA(Air Line Pilots Assoc). It's now RALPA....the Regional Air Line Pilots Assoc...
Nonsense. If your statement were true, then regional pilots would be able to "flow up" to mainline partner carriers. The only flow that has ever existed was a "flow back" when major carriers had to reduce staffing. Mainline pilots have successfully prevented "flow up" agreements benefiting union regional pilots.
