ALPA at Delta just sold you out, but they'll tell you it's for the greater good and that they are protecting all pilot jobs. Will make the pill a little easier to swallow when all the 50 seater ALPA RJ pilots are furloughed and thrown to the streets with as a result of an ALPA-agreed TA. Serving two masters at once, both majors and regionals? Don't get me wrong, it's great and about time Delta takes the flying back and will now fly CRJ-200 routes in a 717. That is good news. But the same representation group, ALPA, is also suppose to represent the regional interest. One cannot grow without negatively impacting the other!
