How's that working out for us so far?
Our "interests" don't "compete". We cannot hold negotiations with their management and they cannot hold negotiations with our management. The lawyers don't have to be concerned, because the pilot groups are mutually exclusive to each other.
How does the Delta Pilots' inability to discuss scope with Pinnacle, Inc. cause a conflict?
Also, didn't NW+DAL reduce the maximum number of large RJ's in the merger than the groups had independently? Why wasn't the JPWA rejected by ALPA National since it reduced the availability of outsourced flying?
