Just my 2 cents. ALPA has had the non disputed position of representing the majority of the pilots for quite sometime. No questions asked. Most of us feel that National ALPA has become a self serving entity, i truly believe this. I have had good buds elected that were going to kick butt for the pilots all of a sudden only turn into guys worrried about the good of NATIONAL ALPA. Really Xissed me off. It is a self serving organization that I do not believe we can correct but I do believe we can get their attention with this vote. I personally feel that my dues dollars are pretty much wasted. I would much rather waste them on a DELTA only group as at least I would know the bucks were being spent for me and not a regional taking my flyng away. ALPA (national) can not represent 2 groups that are in conflict with each other. you regional guys out there are shooting down the professsion for what you are willing to work for and you know why you went to work for that pay , top get to the big bucks but you are destroying the chance to get there. I sent in my card, shot across the bow. Send in yours because all that will happen is a vote on ALPA or DPA. In the end if it is ALPA they will have to acknowledge that they have a group that is not happy with the curent direction and maybe they will change.
