Are you saying that you can’t lose your job with a union carrier? I beg to differ.

From what I have heard she didn't lose her job.

"The National Transportation Safety Board blamed the accident July 22, 2013, on the captain's attempt to recover from a bad landing approach by taking control of the Boeing 737-700 from the co-pilot at just 27 feet off the ground..."

"Southwest's plane landed hard enough that the nose-gear punched up into the plane's electronics bay and it skidded 2,175 feet to a halt, according to investigators."

"Eight people suffered minor injuries on the flight..."

FWIW, no amount of representation was going to save that captain's job.

You're wrong. If you don't know the facts you shouldn't post. LOL LOL

This comment you are quoting is not saying “you can’t lose your job with a Union Carrier”. It’s saying there are additional advocates and representation on the Pilots side if something were to happen. Big difference.

You are correct, The Captain was terminated. Nice to see you look at the situation with humor and a smirk. What have you done personally for your pilot group? Gleaming how great management is doesn't count.

How many crews has SAPA got re-instated lately?

I'd take any real representation over SAPA and I personally wish it would disband and cease. We are going backwards with SAPA and we are stuck with our industry below mediocre TA for many years. While RAH still is well over us in pay and rules and is coming up on a new contract soon.

A union isn’t going to save your job if you egregiously violate your profiles and ignore stabilized approach concepts. They will have your back on more grey cases.
