So let's start thinking like them.
From now on, don't brief a second runway or missed approach. No plan Bs in honor of the NC.
No, I think their Plan B was,
"If we have to go missed approach, we will just pull the nose up, cut both engines, roll it inverted and pull..."
There was Zero preparation of the battle field here, and they can't claim they didn't know it was coming, like they did for the rushed C2012 contract. They KNEW when the amendable date was and they knew when we were going to exchange openers. What they didn't do was to tell this pilot group how many Billions of Delta's record "Earnings" were actually derived directly from our Bankruptcy Pay Rates and lost DB funding!
Then, they violated the number one request of every pilot's survey;
"DON'T TOUCH PROFIT SHARING!"
