Sometimes I find my Union to be corrupt and generally disgusting. My attitude improves when I see a bunch of company guys in their 50s get replaced with fresh grads at half the pay.

They’re courting the APA still. It’s been their dream for years now to make the AA pilots ALPA. Reducing the dues to attract them more was part of that plan as far back as 2013. Looks like they’re moving forward on a sales pitch to APA members.....

It's a nightmare of mine... when the APA does something it cheapens the profession... whether it's crappy contracts or freeloading off of ALPA's efforts.. (FAA ReAuth) They [APA] don't even have a code of ethics, which a profession requires. |

APA pilots are assessed a higher dues rate too often to justify their lower dues rate. In addition there is something called value and the APA ain't it.

Often I find that such nonsense comes from someone who doesn’t have a clue and hates the fact that their chosen profession is dependent on collective bargaining. Fortunately, such selfishness rarely lends itself to any action.

Actually ALPA PAC gave 51% to Democrats and 49% to Republicans last year,...but why let facts get in the way of a good story. ;)

Did I read correctly that ALPA is thinking to go from 1.9% to 1.85%?

51 is more than 49... right? Unless in your “cloudy” World math doesn’t make sense, which wouldn’t surprise me
