Default Question for FEDEX ALPA Re Disputed pairings

I am curious about something. The ALPA office says that they cannot publish the names of the guys flying the DP's because of some legal reason.But how can they publish the names of the guys that are non members or on dues check off? What is the difference.And they put the names in every Positive Rate Publication.

If the union published the names of the people flying DP, that could be seen as discouraging work, which the union cannot do if not in active self-help. Publishing the names of NMs is not the same animal, its not disrupting flying. Thats how it was explained to me anyway.

... work = earnings... earnings = dues

or am I oversimplifying this?

Fish, If you have a personal question, why don't you just PM instead of the rest of us having to read your personal post?

lol.... I just love this place...

can't we all just get along
"Rodney"

The disputed part of this pairing is a *all dragger. Made it to the hotel but it was a long day. A new guy, first trip after ioe, and a guy that doesn't fly much. Both good guys but makes ya have to pay attention more, and I hate paying attention!

just alerted for the long haul from NGO-NRT.

Yeah, thats what I am Talking about.Did the same DP last month and both guys were under 75 hours and I did not feel comfortable leaving them up there.One was right out of IOE and had Vacation and had not seen the aircraft for 5 weeks and the only overwater(international) he had was HNL SMF.And the other guy had only done one Pacific crossing.They were great guys and wanted to learn.Not there fault.
