That's Great. The Lobbying group for the major airlines is working with a union that represents Labor against Management, talk about the Fox guarding the Hen House

Perhaps the longest thread title ever.

Well longer than the posts so far.

Is Bill Pollock getting a kick back out of it?

ALPA worked with the the Airline's trade Association to provide a system that the Federal Government approved for US Airways' and other pilots, and hopefully flight attendants as well, that permits crewmembers to bypass airport security. Instead of congratulating those who were responsible for creating a tangible quality of life benefit reducing crewmember hassles we have people who complain about ALPA's success.

This is a win for most airline stakeholders: Customers, Employees, and Companies alike because of the reduced security line transit times.

No. No no no. This cannot be correct. I have communications from my Union that say Mike Cleary negotiated this.

In the long run, don't really care who did. Just like getting rid of the flight kit and hat..it’s a good thing. To be truthful, I think USAPA did indeed have role in this, and the actual committee guys on the front lines in DCA should be commended. It is obvious ALPA wanted no part of them getting any credit.

Hope they can get the F/As on soon. That would allow us to go through as a crew. I still like that concept, even though it may be short lived.

What does porn have to do with anything? - men figure there as well as women do. Porn-watching women react to it in the same way porn-watching men do, so it's the same.
