Please somebody go set up an ALPA information table and BBQ grill outside of all SWA and AA pilot domiciles!!
Just stating my opinon after what I've experienced in life so far. I don't care what you guys do, but for you to start a new union from scratch is alot tougher than sticking with ALPA. ASA and XJT know how ALPA works and your dues will go further by sticking with them. I'm not saying that an independent union is bad, just that at first your dues aren't gonna get you much when you start your own independent union.
