I definitely feel as though the 9E pilot group should have approached us, just out of common courtesy. That being said I'm not sure what our involvement would have added or taken away from 9E's TA. Maybe I'm missing something here (I usually am), but seems as though the only thing that was missed was DALPA having a seat at the table.
I don't know either and there is no point in speculating.
The fact is, our Reps can not represent us if they are not in the room.
If the Delta MEC is not going to enter the room, then all they are is a social club. If the Delta MEC is not in the room, it is irrelevant. The very definition of marginalized is not participating.
