2) We have pilots on property that have the credentials, experience and the education to be excellent negotiators. The problem is that none of them want to work with DALPA. The current policy of proactive engagement at DALPA makes it really tedious and tough to properly negotiate. Before the process even starts, DALPA is already knee deep in kool-aid and has a case of Stockholm Syndrome.

To negotiate properly and to have an effective UNION, there needs to be a nice thick line between Management and Labor (no commingling, no "I have Richard's Cell number on speed dial"). No more Proactive Engagement, period!!! Management always takes advantage of us with PE.
