Here's what you're missing Bar: That was a decade ago when the majority of ALPA members were pilots that flew for the majors, and the regionals were largely not ALPA members. Today, the majority of ALPA members are Regional Pilots; but now ALPA represents both! So how does that manifest itself to today's facts on the ground? By ALPA blatantly NOT defending Delta's Section 1. A section that could be perceived as hurting the interest of another member union. Definition: Conflict of Interest.Originally Posted by Bucking Bar
Look at the factual history. To the extent there was a conflict of interest (Comair and ASA's complaint about CY2K's scope restrictions) ALPA fought on the side of the Delta pilots.

You find it odd based on decades old history. Based on today's facts, it is the very definition of a conflict of interest.Originally Posted by Bucking Bar
I think it odd that the DPA crowd jumps on board this "conflict of interest" issue when the facts clearly show that when there is a conflict, it has been resolved in OUR favor.

Sadly, that is true. But even worse is now - where our already weak scope is not even being defended by our union. Why? ALPA's conflict of interest.Originally Posted by Bucking Bar
As far as our scope sales go, you need only look as far as your own MEC, your own Reps and your own pilots' voting record. Comair did not negotiate our outsourcing. WE DID.
