Maybe i got it wrong but what exactly is the CPO doing that is so adversarial to the pilot group? My interactions w/ the CPO have all been business like and rather benign - in fact, DH out in Vegas is a GREAT DUDE!!! And, I remember a system CP a few years back that essentially resigned over an issue the company wanted him to advocate but what happened? He was given some "special" job and a different CP was brought in to tote the company line. With this company, it's just a matter of time before they find someone to think like they do.
I don't know if CD is that guy but I'm more concerned with what we're losing with him vacating his current position than what might happen while he's the CPO.
