ALPA has a group of pilots that go on these message boards for propaganda purposes, The above poster is one of them.
ALPA national wants the credit for the good times and turn the blame for the bad times to the dues paying pilots at the airline they represent.
The Midwest pilots spent a lot of dues money for the ALPA expertise on scope clause, ALPA national failed miserably and will not support the Midwest pilots because the dues money loss and it does not effect the NWA and DAL pilots, the loss of Midwest helps them. Oh coincidentally, Air Tran benefited from Midwest Airline pilots current predicament, ALPA loss on Midwest Airline Pilots scope clause was quickly rewarded to ALPA, by Air Tran pilots, when they joined recently.
The head of the Airline Pilots Association, Prater, told the Midwest Airline pilots he will change is zip code to MKE untill this scope violation was enforced. He is a liar.
Cliche that is true, history does repeat itself time and time again. Pan Am, TWA, Eastern, Frontier, Braniff, Midwest, Aloha, ...................
The ALPA Pyramid scheme pays more for the last investor, not the first.
