INTELLIGENCE INDICATED -

It's a tough call, but the ALPA pilots need to get a firm grip on what solidarity means. The logical decision was to prevent the commuters from exceeding 20 seats in prior contracts.

In any event, the ComAir pilots are apparently quite savvy to the probability of being sabotaged by ALPA - from within their own ranks. Of course, there will be some passionate word-smithing to describe 'rape' as 'sport sex.' It will be economic incest, in any event. ALPA has its good history, but there remains a rotten dark side, as well.

For all the money collected, ALPA should be working on a legal avenue to upgrade the rights of pilots to the level of a bus driver. Anyone who has been through, or close to, an FAA violation will see the significance in that suggestion. Pilots eat their own, more often than not.

Anyone with a brain will advise that a contract is 10% protection against the company and 90% protection against their fellow pilot.

Change is indicated.
