We tried to get ALP[A] on property but we had less than 100 total pilots at that time. ALP[A] said they were not interested because we did not have enough dues paying pilots to make it worth their while.

Money talks . . . if it ain't talkin' loud enough ALP[A] could care less.
Maybe ALPA has changed its philosophy from when you were there, but ALPA currently represents several pilot groups with less than 100 pilots.
