ALPA must end the whipsaw between its regional and mainline groups by achieving integration of the seniority lists of all its pilots. It's just as difficult to fly a Saab as it is a 777. Its just harder to get a seat on the 777. There is no reason why a new hire should not start at the company owned or codeshared regional and work his/r way up to that 777. Its the only fair way to do it, and the only way to fight for all ALPA pilots. Ultimately, I think all of our living standards depend on achieving this.
