Everyone talks about going at it alone, but why?

Why not pool the pilot groups of all the majors and LCCs together? I imagine that this is a debate that will be happening at UA/CO, as well, if it already isn't happening.

People talk about all the services that ALPA provides, but if the various groups -- APA, SWAPA, UPA, DALPA/DPA, etc. -- got together, we can just as easily do the same.

There's already CAPA. Could that be the precursor to an ALPA replacement?
