Pilots or individuals who pay union dues that file grievances deserve our union's support, even if that support goes against the MEC Chair's opinion or point of view. Our ALPA pyramid has the members on top and the leadership on the bottom. Our pilot grievances should be fully supported with the entire ALPA tool box.

Pilots file and are supported by their respective local councils.

I’ve been an Insler cheerleader in the past. Not anymore. His leadership in the last year has been shameful.

I second that thought. Insler has not represented our interests in a long time.

I think that’s become abundantly clear.

The Survey has nothing to do with our contract or our Union. I think this board has a bunch of morons on it. It's like 4-5 questions about how you feel about the company. Leave it to a bunch of morons to make something out of nothing. Answer with all 1s..jesus. DB's
