There really needs to be an info campaign started by ALPA to combat the "ALPA is gonna favor PCL" stuff. That sounds like something that was totally out of left field, and people that are anti-ALPA are talking it up. There is NO evidence to support that. Now, if the pilots elected to your MEC favor PCL, then that's the ONLY way CJC is gonna get favoritism over PCL pilots in the ALPA system. ALPA national has VERY, VERY little to say on how things are done at individual carriers, so there's no reason ALPA would favor PCL guys over CJC concerns. It's fear mongering started by guys that don't understand how ALPA works.
They might as well say ALPA is gonna favor the Delta pilots over the NWA pilots.....
Does anyone who's for Teamsters realize that it is Teamsters who forgets about newhire classes and then mails them a informational packet after they were told they would be furloughed, asking for back dues? Sheaaahh!

PCL....Sherpa is on the ALPA OC.....he's merely posting the thoughts of the IBT'ers.
My good friend at xjet just told me to make sure we don't vote in alpa. Said alpa wants to take more money from the pilots to make up for lost dues rather than take a paycut themselves. He said the alpa guys make 200K+.
Just sayin' what he said. Hmm, usairways, now xjet, maybe we better start listening.
:yeahthat:Word!What???? This is flamebait at its finest! Yeah, that's it, the 450 pilots at CJC are going to offset the 5,000 pilots it lost from the AAA/AWA debacle.
To that I say: Wake up and get a clue! Stop being ignorant and actually try to educate yourself on the issues instead of listening to fear-mongering crewroom nonsense.

Finally some info in IAD from ALPA! Was in the crew room yesterday and one of the Captains who went to the EWR open house posted up an ALPA Q&A. I read through it and its good stuff. Glad to see that ALPA is going to make a visit to IAD as well, that place is in love with teamsters.
From what I've been hearing, we've had some info (such as stacks of authorization cards) in the crewroom and they magically disappear with IBT information being put down in it's place. Someone has (or many have) been trying to snuff ALPA's presence in IAD. No worries though, we'll be making a show of force in short order. Look for 'bites to eat' in the not-too-distant future.
For now, we need to focus on getting the authorization cards returned ASAP. If any of you haven't done so yet, PLEASE DO IT NOW!
