I will also go a step farther. Every DPA supporter WANTS to be a firm ALPA supporter. Yes, EVERY SINGLE ONE. Every pilot wants to be able to believe their collective bargaining agent has the absolute best interests of the pilot collective as the foremost concern. The problem is, they don't, or maybe they haven't is a better way to say it.

We all can be reasonable. Bankruptcy was an unreasonable time. The ensuing years have also changed the way many look at this job and our prospects with regard to it. We all want DAL to grow organically, we all want a great contract, we all want improvements in other areas too.

How to get there is really the issue. Personal attacks don't help either side of the discussion. There is little doubt DALPA is going to negotiate this contract. I hope they do an amazing job. If they don't, what will YOU say? You are predicting what Donut crack pipers will say, but what will you say?

Unity is critical going forward, the DPA website's existence has no effect on unity. We are all DAL pilots.
