ALPA and the goons running the show (No-neck Prater and Rice-a-roni) are too busy upping their playing weight and grooming their mustaches to care about the line pilot.
Oust ALPA and get a real union like the APA. Get a union that is geared to represent your interest versus the RJ laynard wearing union of ALPA.

Please expand on what APA has contributed to the new rule. It would be basically nothing. They put almost no cash time or effort into the rule. They left ALPA to do the heavy lifting and pour money into trying to get things changed. When APA pours millions into effecting change then post about it on here.
