We have one of the most unified groups I've had the pleasure of working with and we had the highest approval percentage in ALPA history when electing them to represent us. We've been doing absolutely everything we need to, to improve pay and QOL here at the fastest pace aloud by the railway labor act. Sorry if it's not fast enough for you but considering we're already nearing the end of scheduled mediation and our contract has only been amendable since March, I'd say they're doing a d@mn fine job! Feel free to stay at your regional airline with that attitude, let us know how the staple turns out.
That's because is not that easy to get the call. I guarantee you there are a ton of pilots with apps out there. Granted we are all working for an industry standard but let's not kid our selves. We are no United/Delta/AA/SWA.

Neat paint jobs, new BIG airplanes and seniority advancement don't make for a career. Mostl of the folks i work with who were once interested here have said "no thanks," don't want to fly with people who cannot see and fix their problems. I realize they have voted to authorize a strike, still a LOONG way from that scenario. Jeese.

You can see it under the Majors forum. It has the Frontier prefix but isn't showing up in the Frontier forum, weird.
Already heard this story from a few people, they said his wife has already "divorced" him on Facebook. Seems to be legitimate.
