I am not sure how I post my research. I do have a 321 page document titled "ALPA Merger Chronology" that goes back to 1932. In that document there is no mention of any group pulling off what we did in this merger. All I know is that our merger was the impetus for a complete rewrite of ALPA Merger Policy that adopted the principles we pioneered. If we didn't pioneer them, then why weren't they in there in the first place? Since you have said that this is quite common, shouldn't you have at least one example? I am sure you will make another deflection shot, but it is what is expected of you.
