The US Airline Pilots Association (USAPA) was the collective bargaining agent for the majority former US Airways "East" pilots, and the minority former America West Airlines "West" pilots.
 USAPA bullied its West pilots, and violated its duty to fairly represent them.
 USAPA was led by East pilot Mike Cleary.
 USAPA was formed by East pilots for the exclusive and immoral - if not illegal - purpose of attempting to renege upon the results of a binding arbitration into which the East pilots had previously entered with the West pilots.
 After USAPA's dissolution, a number of East activists withheld millions of dollars from the entire membership.
 During the fair representation trial, USAPA used as courtroom witnesses East pilots Sully Sullenberger and Jeffrey Skiles of the infamous Hudson River flight 1549.
 Both witnesses testified in support of the discriminatory practices of USAPA, and why they felt justified in bullying, and attempting to break their arbitrated agreement with the innocent West pilots.

 Upon the completion of US Airways' merger process with American Airlines, US Airways Express was rebranded as American Eagle on October 17, 2015.
