Not accurate.

All Board members have a fiduciary duty to recuse themselves if they have a conflict of interest. If a Board member also sits on another company's board, and Delta has a relationship with that company, it is appropriate for that Board member to recuse himself from those discussions. Section 1.L. describes our Board members interaction and access. Everyone should read it.

Your second sentence above is completely not accurate. Our Board member gets info that the MEC is not allowed, and could be a threat to ALPA. In that case, the release of that info to the MEC is governed by Section 1.L.1.b. The underlined part indicates how its distribution is restricted. Here's a quote:

...the Pilot Member may from time to time, with the knowledge of the Chairman of the Delta Board or Chief Executive Officer of Delta, exercise his reasonable discretion to provide such information to the Delta MEC, its officers, relevant committees, and advisors who have executed confidentiality agreements approved by Delta for that purpose.

I get the impression that you are trying to minimize the value of the full-time, voting ALPA member on the Delta Board. If that is your point, I think it's ridiculous and naive. Virtually every labor group in the world would like to have the interaction with company decision makers we have.

Furthermore, if the MEC puts someone in that position and he breaks the law by disclosing SEC confidential info, he'll find himself in jail.
