I wonder if the program participants, assuming they are new to aviation have thought of, or are aware of the potential alienation. Hopefully the word will get out and they'll rethink their choice before it's too late.

The union shouldn't expend political capital on fighting this program. Very few will be want to join through it and even less will be able to afford it.

Receive assessment invitation and prepay $200 fee (covers assessment administration and processing fees).
So you have to pay $200 to take the test to even see if you are even worthy of shelling out $125k.
