The APA made a mistake counter suing to have unilateral control of the SLI at SCS (unless delay is their strategy). To "preserve service" I would suppose the NMB might be reluctant to declare SCS until the APA demonstrates an intention to follow the law they necessitated. The mediation is a way to move the red tape along, albeit at the speed of bureaucracy.

I say out with the APA and USAPA. We need a card drive after SCS. I'd love to see a real union on property...maybe the Teamsters. There's enough disenfranchised pilots in both memberships. It just might work.

Please, please, please hook me up with those mushrooms, you are tripping balls.

That was made very clear to me by a couple of ex-TWA guys that graciously allowed me on their jumpseat a while back. Alas, USAPA is the one union on God's green earth with more disfunction than APA. But, I still think an outside union would stand a decent chance of winning a representation vote. (I admit it will likely never happen, though.)

I'm sure the impact on PHX pilots is just collateral and coincidental.

Staunch Usapians consider EVERYONE else's actions to be mistakes if they defy the Usapian agenda. Why should other unions be different from arbitrators, managements, judges and the general sentiment of the rest of the industry ?

Please don't label whole groups of people.
Stop the hate.
