BS. They will not get 50% of the pilots much a less a vote before we are in the middle of exchanging proposals. ALPA will not get voted off unless it is a knee jerk reaction to a horrible contract. The irony is that the lack of unity that DPA is fanning the flames of will be equally if not more responsible for it.
I know that if I were in management, I would be licking my chops at all of the ways this group could be divided in to little fiefdoms and picked off.
DPA says it wants what is best for DAL pilots. I bet you that well over 85% of this group will tell you that what is best for them is a great contract. Pushing this drive though section six will result in less for everyone, and that is not what is best for this group.
