I don't know. Maybe we Delta pilots should join a union and find out.
If we do join one someday, we'll get a scope which won't say what airplanes the airline must buy, but WHO will fly them.

It does no such thing. The only thing that decides our share of the flying is Delta management in its sole discretion.
