I think it is unfortunate that Comair pilots have kept in place a rogue MEC for years. This is a case of the group being held accountable for the actions of their leaders who they elected and have kept in office over time. When the Comair leadership could not achieve a political victory within ALPA, they chose to turn on the association with the RJDC. Additionally, the Comair MEC has always acted hostile towards DALPA and Delta pilots. They have always viewed their relationship with the Delta pilots as what's mine is mine and what's yours is half mine. This is very personal to Delta pilots and if you haven't been part of it from the Delta side of the table you wouldn't understand.

I personally thought MDPilot's remarks were balanced for the most part if you read the whole thread. He was pressured into giving his opinion and got a little emotional. He later apologized for his statement he wouldn't mind seeing Comair being liquidated. I think you are being unrealistic to suggest he should be expected to forget his personal history when it comes to Comair. When asked if he would automatically dislike a Comair pilot he said no. Delta pilots treat the individuals who they see in passing in the airport or on their jump seats with respect, but they are not going to be as excited to allow them into the fold as pilots from other airlines. There are plenty of other airlines for Comair pilots to go to, although some other ALPA carriers may have problems with the RJDC since it has sapped resources that ALPA could have put to better use. This is just a simple natural consequence to taking a stand, nothing personal.
