It seems to me the "old" DALPA made the most out of it (sans scope) during that negotiation, and the "new" DALPA is trying to be more prudent, telling us that "We know more than you know, but we can't tell you, so just trust us in leading the way". Either way is not what I want.


History is doomed to repeat itself if we don't learn from it.
You're far more apt to be doomed by believing BS. C2K pilot pay did not bankrupt anybody. 9-11 did.
