It all makes sence, but I am affraid if we separate into smaller unions we will loose influence on big game politicians. ALPA can get a Congress hearing almost anytime and in general a lot of politicians are trying to talk to ALPA on weekly/monthly bases. Unlike SWAPA or even APA.
Will we loose the big gorilla advantage in influencing where this industry is going if every airline has it's own union?
The only thing politicians see in us is unity and if we loose that the only thing left over will be special interests of managements taking them golfing in Ireland and it will not be good..
