Must have washed out in training then. |
If Alpa were a real union, PSA would have never taken those concessions in this climate.

Thousands of pilots applying for the job. There could be a demand for Crop dusters.

If an airline is BK(this is not about PSA but rather a hypothetical situation), and it comes to it's pilot group for concessions, would it be ok for ALPA National to tell management to go pound sand simply because ALPA is a "real union"? Putting pilots there out of jobs? The decision is up to the pilot group. Not ALPA National. |
Alpa proves once again that they do not represent the needs of regional airline pilots

Even ones who I felt had no business in a jet got hired within a month of applying.
I agree that decent pay and job security is what could solve this issue in a heartbeat. |

I agree with you that once a pilot group votes on something alpa national can't not deny there opinion but the union is also suppose to protect the whole group from a group that might have other motives that don't help the entire group as a whole. PSA although they have the right to made a choice that will only benefits them and hurts a lot of other carries in the long run when it comes to negotiations. A proper union would come out and try to explain to the out the group how bad there choice could be. |
Hmmmm, US regional: $17k a year and 40 year old wife or Chinese airline $17K a month and 25 year old Asian girlfriend.
