You are forgetting history.

The AFAP has lost more members than it has gained over recent years.
Ask yourselves why?
I suspect the main reason they are jumping on the 1 pilot union band wagon is simply due to the deteriorating numbers and possible demise of the AFAP all together.

They are simply out chasing the big groups which = big $$$$ with the style of rhetoric pilots want to hear. They appear to accomplish 0!

If LC and the AFAP were serious, they would start by looking after their current members and the GA community in general. It is the best opportunity in years for GA to make some gains and the AFAP is silent.

1 pilot union may be good for pilots, the AFAP is not. Let them struggle in the quicksand. If it weren't for the LOL there wouldn't be an AFAP at all.
