That's not my style.... although I think there's enough room under the tent for all of us. There's a lot of angst and mistrust in our pilot group with regard to DALPA, because of the handshakes, smiles and lines in the sand that vanished and continue to move daily. The pilot you refer to represents the way many of us feel inwardly, but we are patiently waiting to see if ALPA can deliver. ALPA will not survive as a mainline representative without making some traction in this contract. This contract is monumentally important to all the Delta pilots, but make no mistake, it's just as important for ALPA National. I support my Union, but I'm not blindly trusting them this time.... Lee burned a lot of bridges while he was building others...... I guess that's just politics.....
I was in the back in uniform, commuted in just to come to the mtg, so traveling in uniform made it a little easier.
Thanks again!
