Sadly, many of the attitudes that resulted in the OSB split and '89 have not really changed, all these years later, and industrially, there is no even a half way good reason, let alone a compelling reason, for AFAP to be granted any kind of sole coverage of pilots.
Isn't AFAP the outfit that convinced its members to drink the Kool-Aid and resign
en masse in 1989?
It was the infamous 'don't worry, they can't do without us' negotiating strategy.
I've listened to those sad expat Ozmate tales of we shoulda, coulda, woulda for three decades now.
