So I'll fix your quote:
Hey dawg, The basic indoc instructor you are referring to is a Delta Captain with a career full of experience before he retired to save his valued "A" plan that Delta Management and a Bankruptcy Judge Stole from the Delta Pilots during Chapter 11 proceedings.
Funny how this is getting so muddled in younger pilots' minds. Most don't care to get the facts.

Another way to look at it is the $2Bil+ early retiring Deltoids took out helped Delta go BK. Even if you think they contributed to the BK the ship was headed in that direction and you couldn't turn it.

Can't say I blame them for retiring early. It's good they had that option on the eve of BK. Management's compensation scheme gives them that sort of flexibility so we should have it too.
