IMO DALPA will let this pass without a word. I mean why take the opportunnity to congratulate them and also mention the Delta pilots are still working under bankruptcy concessions and need an 18% hourly rate increase to hit numbers that are over 11 years old without accounting for inflation.

I attended the Communications Training School at ALPA National and I can tell you it doesn't get any better that this for a talking point to educate the shareholders, fellow employees and management. Making a public statement rallies the pilots and unifies the group.

IMO we will hear nothing but silence.

Silence is consent.
