How's that working out at Comair? ASA? Horizon? Mesa? TSA?

Regional's and unions work really well.

You love to hate but so far every single rumor has lined up. Not too long ago people were laughing at me for saying we would have 70 seat configs coming.

Haters gonna hate ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Lots of people have said the "70 seat" thing. Me included. I called the CRJ900/ E175 "lites"... enough with the union crap. We all wish it would or wouldn't happen. I have heard of no such drive and im in touch with the very vocal alpa guys.. and not a peep from them... My source was only 1 day off on this announcement... more to come. My be a month or 2 though...

A union drive doesn't necessarily have anything to do with ALPA. In fact, if there was a union drive starting, I'm almost positive it would have nothing to do with ALPA. The last few pilot groups that went ALPA have all been organic. ALPA now takes the stance that they are hands off until the internal union drive is well under way and strong. So I doubt you have anything to worry about.

You don't like it here? GTFO. Tell us how the union is benefiting you at Envoy or some other crap ALPA carrier.

ALPA doesn't do crap for regional carriers except drain pilots of what little pay they have.
