The big annual ALPA meeting where they was in Vegas of all places last week.

Granted, I know Vegas hosts a lot of conventions, probably more so than anywhere else, but if they truly wanted to get a lot of stuff done, they would have chosen somewhere else with less... "distractions."

But, I would like to hear some of the positive outcomes of this meeting if there is any.

Talking ALPA Meeting in Vegas

Positive News from the ALPA Conference in Las Vegas:

1- No one got arrested
2- Got kicked out of three bars only
3- The strip joint was great, and again no one got arrested
4- Did not have to fly the airplane going back (12 hour rule)
5- The pilots flying the airplane back did not use PPAS
6- Won a lot of money. (No need to collect money for the Merger Fund)

Yeah I went! Eagle was well represented too! Actually all the guys who fly at Colgan are all ALPA OC members. I was pretty drunk or hungover for the whole thing.

Seems to me that the company is making integrations changes in the office with all of the positions that they are doing away with.
Where do you get this stuff? Do you have a brother who has a dentist that has a neighbor that works with a guy in the GO's wife?
