I hear alot of pilots from other airlines other than NW or DAL stating that they should both unite! How about those breast beaters... are you all willing to walk out in sympathy for both NW and DAL? Are you willing to share your incomes so the DAL and NW pilots can contiune to put food on their tables, pay their mortgages? Are you willing to join their picket lines?
Lets face reality. This could very well be the end of the road for those poor boys. This has to bring back bad memories for those guys who watched their jobs go down the crapper at Eastern Airlines, Pan Am, Challenge Air Cargo... etc.
Its not fair to give advise or support on the internet when your not willing to risk your own livelihoods.
