All of you AIPA supporters might like to consider the following.For over 20 years they were in a comfortable cocoon,they looked after themselves and didn't give a rats about the rest.Then along came you know who?The bunker thought a little ridicule here and there and we will just look down our nose at them and who will want to fly with them??That was never going to work,GD saw to that.In the swamps of aviation the regionals were also growing.Back over in the bunker the CB had been reset and the lights came back on and the writing on the wall could be seen.The whole charade over the past few years has been for one reason and one reason alone,to save their own bacon.The urgency of their posturing will ramp up as the delivery of the "Dreamliner" approaches,this is perhaps why they have now decided to embrace all professional pilots.Time will tell.
