Since reading this report I searched for other documents concerning the TWA pilots lawsuit against ALPA and came across something called "spoilation of evidence". I will try to find the link to it, but if I understand what I read it means ALPA destroyed the evidence the TWA pilots were requesting. Not a lawyer, but it seams if you have a lawsuit against you, then you better keep the evidence or it looks real bad when you destroy it.

Go to the trial. The trial is happening now in camden. Alpa willfully and deliberately destroyed evidence and this fact as well as many other's are coming out in court now in front of a jury.
