And no tony you didnt have any say in this.

Don't kid yourself, you had as much of a say in this as TW did. The only real difference is that he as well as SWA, RAH, F9, AA, UPS and many others don't pay 1.95% to ALPA.

Im not sure where you say me saying that I had a say in this, and you are correct that I paid 1.95% and the others didnt, which is exactly what I said the first time. And dont kid yourself into thinking I have the option to pay union dues to ALPA or not.

I was on the verge being impressed with the system. I am looking forward to seeing work in wide scale test or all the way online.

At least if it spreads you won't have to deal with PAX wondering why you're cutting in line or them standing 20 deep in the employee line.

BTW, the SigEp's on my college campus weren’t very reputable to say the least but there are bad apples in every bushel. This comment is not directed at you, just an interesting tidbit that I thought of when I first saw your handle.

Good Day.

WOW how did this become ALPA bashing, it cracks me up how even in these times we cant see the bright side...we ALL are pilots facing tough times, and heres is a nice bright spot and here we go with "mines better than yours"

I'm won't disagree with you on those points. I'm just referring to the whole crewpass idea.

You're right. Most of those pay more around 3% to their respective unions.
