johnso29, your post is so full of fail I don't even know where to start.
These aren't loopholes. They're written in our contract. I don't know what loopholes you're referring to.
Yes, because we all know DALPA has always negotiated ironclad contracts; no contract ever signed by DALPA has ever contained loopholes. And management has never exploited our ambiguous contract language before. YGBSM.
If we as Delta pilots could fly every single flight Delta Air Lines is associated with that would be awesome. But we can't, becuase it isn't feasible. That really isn't hard to see. Look around the industry
I simply cannot believe a Delta pilot is just fine giving away Delta flying. We've already given up plenty. Why should we be at peace with that? Our goal should ALWAYS be to fly "every single flight Delta Air Lines is associated with." You are trying to convince me that we should continue to support the erosion of our careers. Your naivete boggles my mind.
So tell me, johnson29, when will you have a problem with code sharing, outsourcing, etc? Surely there is some point at which even you will stop defending DALPA enabling our competitors' growth at Delta pilots' expense. I've reached that point. Exactly what is that point for you?
