I got a call from the Wilson polling people last night. Questions about "how do you think Delta mgmt is doing? How is the DALPA working for you? What problems does DALPA have, How effective is ALPA National" (I mentioned Scope about five times - both at the large airplane level and small airplane level.) then, "Have you heard of DPA?" when I said I was very familar with them, a whole slew of questions about DPA were asked.
If any of that is to happen, wouldn't you think that the current polling would be asking pilots what their priorities are in the next contract? Instead, they're asking questions designed to help defeat the DPA. My questions are as follows:
1. When will polling begin on pilot's priorities?
2. Will such polling ever happen?
3. Will DALPA ever clearly state their objectives?
4. Is it DALPA's only objective to have a "seat at the table?"

"The pilots of Delta Air Lines will accept nothing less than C2K restoration as the minimum starting point for negotiations. Further, the pilots of Delta Air Lines will accept nothing less than the reversing of pilot job outsourcing to regional airlines and joint ventures."
A statement like that clearly sets the minimum. Upward movement from the minimum will be based on conditions at the time. The fact that there is no such statement is telling. The fact that current polling is designed to ask about the DPA (an organization with 1500 cards) is even more telling.

1. Menu-settings-wireless networks-wi-fi settings-Menu-Advanced- wifi sleep policy=never, also
2. Airplane mode on then toggle wifi on.
Sometimes if the phone sleeps and wifi goes idle it won't turn back on when the phone wakes.
