Let's all hope ALPA keeps all it's promised and puts out a max effort to get a contract. Picketing means nothing. If they come forward with serious proposals and hard core negotiations that get a contract, then great. If they ***** foot around for the next few months and have nothing substantial, then look out.

More important, I wanna see the Delta MEC Chairman lock arms and support AirTran. If he doesn't, you can pretty much figure out what will happen when he becomes the new ALPA President.
