No wonder we can't get a copy of any budgets or trip drops.

I truly wish I had your level of optimism, but I watched this play out last time and go to a strike, unfortunately the same clowns will give us the same results.

Sure you can. Just go to Herndon, VA go see ALPA E&FA and ask to audit the records. They will sit you in a room and give you files and copies of expense reports to your hearts content. Seen it done!

Are you serious about the 110 hours?

I just looked in our SPA Policy manual and couldn't find anything hour specific to FPL, the ALPA C&BL didn't really have anything specific either. I personally don't think our dues are being misappropriated. If you feel otherwise ask the Sec-Tres.

Gentleman, we have much bigger fish to fry than bust the balls of those who work for us. I'm not saying they should take drops over holidays or get out of control with INFOR expense forms, lol but we should collectively be joining together to fight Jyri, Bendo, Blabbering Bob and whoever else stands in our way to get a timely CBA

As a CA here, I am desperately trying to leave this place. I am actually upset I came here to begin with. I know I know, I knew what I was signing up for, but this place is nothing more than a stepping stone and glorified regional. I'd gladly give up my CA seat for a chance at a "real" airline.
