I don't doubt that the AFAP would represent the best interests of it's members. What I said (opinion only) is that this would probably not extend to supporting industrial action. I don't know of any instance where the AFAP has supported an industrial action in the intervening years since the pilot's strike of the 80's. There might be cases, I just don't know of any. I watch with interest to see what happens with the Bristow pilot group.
