They're not being transparent for one. How many cards do they have?

Prior to 5% return of Cards - Volunteers selected to form Financial Oversight Committee (FOC), Technology Committee and Communication Committee. The Communication Committee will consist of a Captain and First Officer representative at each pilot base.

After 8 months of organizing less than 5%. Really? Is the support for DPA so lame they can't get 5% of the cards sent in? It must be because they said they would have Captain and First Officer Communications representatives in each base. They've failed to accomplish that.

Transparency, who's on the Financial Oversight Committee? Technology Committee?

Initially, a volunteer Board of Directors and a Financial Oversight Committee will be formed consisting of volunteers from both pre-merger groups. These volunteers will set up the books and complete the legal requirements for incorporation and accepting donations. All monies received, spent and balances are posted online for all to see excluding individual names.

Where can I see a report on all monies recieved, spent and balances posted on line for all to see. Why hide the names? Transparency?

At 20% return of Cards – Draft constitution produced to web. Comments received

After 8 months they don't have 20% of cards? Again how many do they have? Transparency?

They must be way behind in organizing otherwise we would have seen that all elusive C&BLs.

How hard can it really be to produce a C&BL's after 8 months when you are claiming to be able to represent 12,000 pilots in the next 5 and negotiate a section six contract.

Obtaining the required amount of Authorization Cards from the total pilot group of 50% plus one by the end of this year will allow for a short validation period and the vote to occur. It is entirely possible to see DPA representing all Delta Pilots by early next summer.

Well then, where's the C&BLs, where's the committee structure, where are the resources needed to represent 12,000 pilots on day one?


Aero medical services are currently outsourced to a company called Aviation Medicine Advisory Service which you can read about at www.aviationmedicine.com. This company could easily be hired by DPA to provide services with no break in coverage to our pilots. DPA will ensure a seamless transition of all of the critical services our group requires.

O.K. show me. Has anything been done to secure those services. 12,000 pilots and their families depend on it on day 1.

You know we're in trouble when both sides best argument is that the other side sucks.
