I know. I was asked a month ago if the Mods deleted it. I did not know, so I went looking. At that time, it was five pages back.

4 of 7 on the crew van today had DPA lanyards and/or bag tags. Two others pledged to send in their cards if the MEC sends us a POS.

I really hope DALPA delivers. If not...they're fired.

I'm thinking Delta management knows that this is inevitable.

While I agree 100% with you guys sentiment, the truth is the fat lady hasn't sung yet. We haven't even seen the fat lady.


Well, I guess we saw the fat lady that is sueing SWA. I thought she just had big bones, but she also had her mothers thighs. I'd buy a ticket to watch her go to Ryan's for dinner. I'd just need a single seat.

Same with me. On my commute up to DTW and back plus every leg of my 12 day trip, not one pilot who wasn't a DPA member.

DPA is not the only solution. I for one would hope to hear what other prospective groups have to say.....

That's the thing about DPA fig...it's pretty much just the vehicle for decertification. TC has already said when this is done, he's out. It's the members that will decide the details of what's to come.

Exactly. It's the path to our own representation--one without obligation to the bloated payroll, cronyism, and egregious conflict of interest at ALPA.

You mean like the higher dues, cronyism, and egregious conflict at USAPA?

Or the complete lack of results at APA over the last decade?

Or the management rear kissing and sub par contract signing SWAPA?

Yeah.... I wanna be as successful as those guys!!!!!
