The other carriers in our "brand" (which f-NWA advocated BTW) have a right to comment to ALPA's President, which they always have had. ALPA drafted the Ford / Cooksey language to formalize the process which always existed in our C&BL.

... and if we an ever get our head on straight regarding unity, we want the RJ guys on board. If I ran ALPA, I'd advocate:

• ALPA membership for all outsourced flying
• Seniority numbers for ALPA members performing Delta flying. Staple order at DAL with protections on current carrier's list. When they can hold mainline & when they wish to bid over come on over WITH longevity.
• Sunset outsourcing

To accomplish this, we need to coordinate and work together. ALPA's C&BLs facilitate this process. ALPA should fight to make ALPA relevant. That means cutting every one else out. We owe them nothing.
