No dog in this fight, but that made me laugh. ALPA, the insurance bennies and merger experience makes them worth it. Not to mention they've negotiated a few pilot contracts. I'm no ALPA cheerleader but c'mon. Really? You could go the in-house route but by the time your guys figure that out they might be stapled to someone else's list. You can always vote them out if you're not satisfied. That's what we did at Purple and then we took them back after our in-house debacle. Good luck nonetheless.
