Which is $499,000.00 more than you are worth. Now spend some of the charity money you are being paid to swing the gear, and get those meds changed. Remember PACKS and PROBES and yessir Mr ASA exF/O.

If you meant a pilot groups' MEC Chair, they typically receive a set guarantee at their normal flight pay which is similar to most folks in a Chief Pilot or management pilot position. Other members of a local ALPA group will receive flight pay loss when they are completing duties for ALPA, but that is not a huge financial windfall as it is meant to replace the $$ they would have made flying.

As for the President of ALPA national and other Executive VPs, they receive a compensation package that uses a specific formula taking into account the type of aircraft, seat position, and seniority at the company from which they hail and additional work hours (they don't get the typical 12-18 days off a month that a line pilot gets...they work M-F and a lot of weekends too). Some of the figures you see on anti-union websites also take into account reimbursements for travel expenses as part of their salary which is false.

Bottom line is that ALPA workers get paid at a level that is commensurate with the time they put in.

You still here, I thought you said you were done. Now get back in line for those medicaid meds you promised. If you can get the granny in front of you to hold your place in line, the new drawstring for your 'taterhole is over by the Manpends. Now STFU and get PACKS and PROBES on, before you get some more richly deserved 5s.

lets assume that he did make that much money, so what. For the amount of work they do its nothing. Still its a fracture of what airline CEO's make.
A far as making money from regionals that is a fars too. ALPA is not a business. Fact and figures show that the regionals spend much more (2-3 times more) than they put in. like PBR said, Gear up dude. ( probably in a 172RG, if that).

1. Captain Woerth was ALPA President, not MEC Chairman. There's no such thing as "ALPA National MEC Chairman."

2. No one in any position at ALPA makes anything close to $500k a year.

3. Get educated.
