Seniority is fair and safe...would be nervous about anything "merit-based" in the Aviation world.

I really, I mean really want to see some national media attention supported by ALPA national. Whats the update? The entire regional industry has been waiting for Mesa negoiations for years now.

ALPA has a responsibility to fix this profession from the bottom UP.

Yep - when it comes to ALPA and the bargaining table for us Little-Jet guys, we're either MAINLINE, or we're NOBODY.

Comair, Air Wisconsin, and Expressjet would beg to differ with that statement.

The strongest of national unions won't do JACK unless a pilot group is unified and fighting together for the same goals.
