What I think would be very interesting to look at is independent representation for many of the biggest regional groups. It is no secret that ALPA is playing a game of conflicting interests in many situations by representing mainline pilots and the regional feed at the same time. I know resources and undoubtedly politics would make this scenario almost impossible, but I would love to see a Sky West/ASA/XJT whatever Pilot's Association that represents pilots at that company. When I look at the companies that are doing the best, many have their own in-house associations. I know many don't agree with this philosophy, and I understand it is probably not likely, but I honestly believe many groups would be better off. Only through consolidation would there ever be a chance to have the resources available for this to be reality.
