I asked each rep how they would vote if that is what happens. One said he'd vote NO, period. The other two said they would only vote YES if there was iron clad language that forced the company to remove those new RJ's, if mainline aircraft decreased.
Like I've said earlier, the bottom half of the list is more important than ever before.

If DALPA asks for any more 70 + seat jets it more than likely be one of their last actions representing the Delta pilots. That would seal the deal to accelerate the DPA into office at Delta. Surely DALPA knows that?
