I knew someone would come up with that. Congrats Denny! You are correct.

As you are too Slowplay. Knew you might crawl out of somewhere and chime in.

I get wistful thinking about those days. It really was quite a time back then. This 3 B 6 you speak of, it was fantastic when we still had that in our contract. It was so effective.

But, do you know what was even better than having it back then?

DALPA, back in that decade, was not the least bit afraid to USE it.

DALPA, back in that decade understood that there were some instances that our interests aligned with management.

And more importantly, there were other instances that our interests were not aligned and had to be fought for. DALPA was not being obstructionist by holding out with 3 B 6, they were just conducting good business on behalf of their constituents. And it was just business, not personal.

Just like it was good business for Leo to tell us, "A contract is a contract," when DALPA came looking for a mid contract adjustment when Delta was rolling in the profit of the dot com decade.

When is DALPA going to get it and understand that this constructive engagement is not working to our advantage?

DPA would be gone like a pit bull fart in a windy dog park if DALPA would become a true bottom up org, be transparent financially, and not be afraid to use our leverage when it is good business for us to do so.

Remember, it is ALWAYS just business.
