The BS about "nothing for 2 yeares after 2012" is just the normal regurgitated fear mongering...How about a 10 day, "Tell RA to stand aside while the MEC talks about it" like should have happened ?!? We don't know the result of having a backbone because that didn't happen because TO and the negotiating Chairman "DECIDED" for the MEC that it was good enough and that they would get the votes required to send it to the "never say NO pilots"!

Are we really still falling for this cesspool of attempted unity and lack of cojones?

Hard to say. We sure have all the same players like alfaromeo, slowplay, shiznit and the others starting in at the exact same time saying the exact same things. We've also got a survey coming out, the results of which the pilots will NEVER see. We've also got the detailed objective of "a historic contract." And we'll almost certainly never be shown OUR opening position, thus we'll never know what our union even asked for.

Will we see the similarities in time to affect change? Do Delta pilots really prize cooperation with management above all else? I really don't know.
