If it were top secret info, why would RA talk about it to 400 known yappers?

He WANTS it leaked, to put some pressure on both Boeing and Aribus for those 'new orders'.

I wouldn't be surprised if that was exactly what was intended.

Agreed...there is no way RA didn't know his speech was going to get leaked. He wouldn't say a word in there that he didn't want the world to hear. Any management anger is feigned, or at least disingenuous.

Thanks, ACL. I got the same memo as well... Apparently the company is watching this board. If RA said it in a meeting and you want to talk about it, it has to come out more discretely than on here.

It was certainly made very apparent that they were aware of the postings on here and that it was done outside of the confidence of RA speaking at the meeting.

Sensitive and info that is not to be posted on here was. They know it will get passed to DAL pilots but this is open to all airlines and pilots.

Trust me when I tell you that it was not anyone's intent to have it out there. I was asked to delete it for the reasons stated. The DALPA message board is for DAL pilots, this on the other hand is open for anyone to see. Make sense?

Speculation is different than briefing notes.

I got phone calls about it. They are not happy. Problem solved. Go talk about it on the DALPA forum.

I agree. I doubt that LCA sign non disclosure forms.

They don't but they expect that group to use a private message forum, or word of mouth. Not a public forum. Had this issue a few years ago as well after some very detailed notes were posted. The warning at that time that was given to the LCA's was be more discrete or we will no longer give the info out.

That sounds reasonable. I appreciate getting the inside information and would hate to see the LCA source eliminated.
