Even at the 1000 ft separation I thought we were goners - at that altitude, your eyes can deceive - and at 1000 kts closure I had 1 second after I saw them and they were right on top of us...

Frankly, this poster is in the minority in that group.

Bla,
Nowhere did I state, or imply, that anybody opposed to ALPA was, or was not, "going" anywhere.
Nowhere did I state, or imply, that anybody was getting rid of any unions at any carriers.
You sound childish.

I do appreciate your comments about generalizations, however. Why don't you review your comments pertaining to SAPA in this very thread (if you're not reluctant to do so).
Now, you want me to perform "detailed" representation for you at SAPA, but you've admitted that you couldn't even vote, to give any credibility to the organization (amongst your other comments on the organization).
Ya, I got your request.

You need to get the chip off your shoulder if you are to have any hope of being effective.
