Five years later, the only things USAPA has delivered are false hope and broken promises. The pilots don’t have a new contract. There is no change to the seniority system. The “professionals” who promised all these changes have been fired and they now work for the DPA.
Let’s be clear, DPA’s efforts are a blueprint of the USAPA disaster and we cannot afford to
repeat the US Airways fiasco here."
What? Don't be ridiculous. You cannot compare DPA to USAPA. DPA get the big issues... Namely the conflict of interest between ALPA majors and regionals.
Enjoy your "validation," but no level of ALPA fear mongering will make DPA anything like USAPA.
You're just gasping for any negative reference to USAPA.
This quote must have really made your day.
