There is enough money to restore C2000 with a healthy Delta balance sheet, without pilots spending more time away from home. Quite simply, given the amount of money Delta has pouring in, it's the right thing to do. Now is the time.

Any DALPA guys that sign off on a TA that does not restore C2000, need to be purged from ALPA work permanently. When everybody hits retirement (and everybody will eventually) Richard will be sitting on over a hundred million dollars for his handful of years spent at Delta. I think it's a fair expectation that pilots should enjoy 5 to 10 for all the sacrifices that come with this job over the course of 30 plus years.
