My prediction is that when implications of losing the legal battle (on its several fronts) are ultimately spelled out to the pilots in the form of the final remedy imposed (reinstatement, cease and desist order, and monetary damages to almost 150 pilots) as well as other sanctions, not to mention the legal fees expended, the pilots will turn on their own Association the same way they have turned on their fellow pilots for asserting their legal rights, blaming their own elected and appointed representatives for the financial and legal disaster.
