United pilots helped get almost 700 rEAL pilots hired at UAL via preferential interviews. NWA got even more rEAL pilots hired at NWA relative to their size.

If not for Gerald Grinstein DL pilots would have been in the same situation as UCH pilots.

When was the last time DL pilots got anywhere near a strike again?

50 seaters, 70 seaters given away and more 90 seaters with 76 seats given away if the T/A passes; all in good times, without a fight and not under duress.

P.S. Johnso, I could not care less whether an obvious company sycophant chooses to listen to facts. For some no amount of evidence is sufficient.
You done squat since post BK. Try moving forward. What you've done in the past does nothing for us today. I know what NWA pilots have done. I was hired by NWA.

And UAL won't be allowed to strike. Isn't going to happen. What's funny is you say you could not care less, but you won't stop talking.
