I guess "Plan B" pumping millions of $$$ into RJs was never really a plan at all but at best a bluff, more likely just standard negotiating 101, and at worst a lie. Its just sad that the NC bought into this crap and tried their very hardest to help DAL sell it to a wisely skeptical Pilot group.
I still find it hard to imagine how so many well meaning, good guys at DALPA bought into this hook line and sinker.
Lets hope the new NC and MEC start thinking a little more critically and stop taking everything said in a negotiation as gospel, and realize that a negotiation is just that - a negotiation.
