Kingsley Roberts testified at the recall meeting that the letter was created by ALPA national. Including the word "scourge." He ultimately signed and sent the letter...and took responsibility for it. But every word was written by ALPA national. Every word.

No, we Delta pilots will fix things. We'll do so with a unified purpose and strategy...not through magic.

Your posts are too over the top to be legit. Even the most ardent of ALPA supporters doesn't go where you've gone.

So look, if you created an account to help push people towards the DPA on behalf of the DPA, it's becoming a little too obvious. Yes we hide our names but the union still knows who we are and occasionally they let us know that they know who we are, but we try to keep it real +/- a little variance. In the end people will figure it out.

If you actually are pro ALPA and not a DPA plant...

I was thinking the exact same thing. He smells like a plant to me.

That is all.

Exactly right. This is how it should work if we were a normal union with checks and balances against the nearly unlimited power of management. We don't have a balance of power now because our "union" has an affirmative strategy to please management first, and the benefits of happy managers will trickle down to pilots.

There is no unity with DPA. If there was, they would've won by now. Also, what strategy? Pound your fists and hold your breath until you get what you want?
