Unions play an important role in Aviation. ...
Historically, unions in the United States have bargained for improved working conditions, particularly higher wages. ... We use Unions today because they are skilled negotiators. ...
One of the current unions for airline pilots is The Allied Pilots Association which serves as the certified collective bargaining agent for all American Airlines pilots. APA was founded in 1963 by a group of American Airlines pilots who broke away from the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA). ... In addition, it devotes more than 20 percent of its dues income to support aviation safety. ... APA membership is voluntary, with approximately 99 percent of all American Airlines pilots choosing to belong. ...
Overall, I believe that unions are important to aviation and enhance a pilots life.
