We have DPA proponents declaring the conflict of interest of 24J, but yet there is no publication anywhere that DPA wouldn't take that money too
I expect more transparency from DPA.

DPA says they are different and more open, yet any Delta pilot can challenge or question ALPA's leadership on our forum, but DPA doesn't provide the same opportunity for dialogue. How can I truly judge DPA when I can't get to know their leadership or openly question them and have them on the record?

Maybe it's a bad analogy, but it's easy to throw mud, it's tougher to build a mud hut. I know that DPA can toss mud, but I have no way to determine if they are as adept in the building trades.

BTW, I've always had a quick response to my inquiries from ALPA.
