ASL pilots receive a package negotiated by the AOA only because there are CXF pilots working for VETA/USAB and THEY have AOA representation. The frtr FOs that chose not to join the CX list for upgrade reasons and the captains over 55 will just stay where the are until nobody cares or they just go away. Anything the AOA negotiates has to be accepted by the membership. I think the seven or eight hundred FOs and SOs on the pax side will still have a problem sitting beside a Captain who is hundreds of numbers and years junior to him on the seniority list. A vote on this issue would not carry, simple numbers. It would be a waste of everyone's time to even start talking about us all becoming one big f#*@ed up family.
