The other problem is we need a Union that we feel confidant that they will go to bat for us. There has been many changes to the association, but I fear not much has changed and if you are not in the country club you will not be defended like those in it. That pertains to grievances as well.

When we recalled and elected new people who talked restoration, but gave us a re-engagement counter offer that does not address work rules, pattern construction that will force taking pilots input, vacation pay, training pay, take the auto extension off the table, retirement, insurance and so forth I see things at DALPA staying status Quo.

I am wearing orange and am supporting DALPA, but they need to prove to us things have changed because of their past track history, trust has been lost and only time and actions will change that, no to auto extensions and unreasonable re-routes and pay issues with fatigue should be advocated now by our association, I wish we had a union.
