I agree. If you read my (increasingly too-many) posts you will see I am hardly a radical.
But this nonsense of "if you vote yes we order new jets" has got to stop. Mgmt will buy the jets and configure them and fly them where they best see fit. Hey, they are very good at it too!
In fact our current mgmt is smart enough that there is no way they would construct an entire fleet strategy contingent on the votes of the pilot group--any more than they would construct our Sky Club, seat configuration, frequent flyer program, cargo operations, delta.com website design or any other element to our company's operations.
