I think you are absolutey right Flamer. DALPA's opener will probably be extremely weak, and the other 50% will happen very quickly. Unfortunately, we'll be in terrible trouble by then because it would show bad faith bargaining to demand more than our opener...even if we elect the DPA.
A weak opener will hurt us for many years, but it may be the price we'll have to pay to rid ourselves of this bloated self-serving bureaucracy called ALPA.
