Great way to stay informed.
I enjoy the podcasts as another way to stay informed on our ALPA issues. Keep up the good work.
Know the process
This is a great introduction and review of the contractual process for new airline pilots and those who have just a few years left. 8 minutes was perfect for keeping me engaged and peaked my interest.
