The point is not flying it, it is showing the willingness to fly it. It is not just 10 guys either, unless no one bids it next month.

Its like calling a guy up who has a house for sale and saying, I'll take it, and then at closing asking how much do you want for it.

I guess if only 10 guys are flying DP's, it is ok too.

I'm not "after" anyone, just stating my opinion. You can blame the union all you want, but without pilots standing behind their actions they are powerless.
