Who's opinions are represented at the DALPA? This confirms to me that either the junior DAL pilot opinions carry absolutely no weight OR the majority of DAL pilot views are not represented on this forum because all the fervent talks amongst DAL pilots on DAL thread had me believe that the majority of DAL pilots wanted to push hard to recapture 76 seat RJ flying starting with stapling Compass guys on the DAL list.

Someone on DAL thread said Lee Moak told him RJ flying is good for DAL. That sounds like a direct quote from the DAL top management. That being the case, it sounds like the DALPA union leadership follows the direction of the DAL management closely. If this is true then the idea of recapturing 76 seat RJ flying back to the DAL mainline is just a pipe dream. Only hope for any regional pilot to get the chance to get hired by DAL is IF and WHEN DAL starts to expand globally and adds more mainline jets.
