And while CAPA is free to chime in from the sidelines, ALPA on the other hand is actively involved in the process with 7 pilots as members of the ARC. How many does CAPA have?

While being involved in the process does not necessarily mean that ALPA can dictate the outcome, IMO, it is far better to at least have a seat at the table, then simply fire off a meaningless press release.
