ALPA is worried about ALPA . Company doesn’t care what country the pilot that fills the seat iis from. ALPA is worried where the dues come from said pilot, and if they return home.. they may not collect the dues.

Since English is your second language, what he was trying to say is that you may want to look into a proofreading service. I’m sure you have a better grasp of your native language.

Not safe from furlough. Yes, I do hold the same opinion. I've also gone through the American immigration process... student visa -> practical training work authorization -> temporary work visa -> permanent residency.

Okay, let’s argue the facts then.
The Australians are all legally employed, pay their dues to the union (if off probation) and work exactly the same job as you; assuming you’re even employed here but your post history says otherwise.
They have every right to the job, as at the time of employment Spirit was sponsoring their work visa’s. Some of them are getting furlough too and there’s no preferential treatment one way or the other.
What exactly is it you want?

Yet you’re calling for the jobs of those who don’t share the same passport as you? Talk about pot-kettle-black…

If you ever have to go fly in another country, The goverment and the Union make it almost impossible and Australia is one of the worst. But here in America we gladly except everyones license.
As I said before . The problem is my goverment should make it fair for everyone.

Look I have no problem with the Australians. They are great people and pilots and have had great times with them.
