Huh? You and all your west buddies should stop whining about your NIC thing that was dead over 7 years ago, poor Tony, stagnation for all west pilots by your own choice.snapthis said:

You are embarrassing the rest of the west pilots.
Hey, go buy another tie.

Says the guy who was hauling fr8t when I brought a job to the acquisition in 2005.
At the end of November 2004, US Airways had more than 1,870, or nearly 33 percent, of its pilots on furlough. The airline has the largest amount of furloughs in the industry.
BTW
I'll be back next week sporting a liberty tie....sport.

Folks, I just finished reading HALF of last weeks Wisconsin's Supreme Court ruling Madison Teachers V. Walker.

It is becoming well established that Abood v. Detroit Board of Education will become overturned at the Supreme Court level and you will no longer be required to pay dues to the union. This is now being contested and argued by the National Right to Work organization (www.nrtw.org)
While I know it hasn't come fast enough for the West pilots it will impact the APA. The NRTW organization is making aggressive inroads to the union system and eventually all states and territories will become right to work or employees at will. No more dues check off or germane dues. In short, it will be just you and the company. Of course you will be free to associate, but "labor" unions will have to compete for your dollars just like every other organization.
ALPA and the APA are dinosaurs of the regulated era and are simply not up to the future.
