The voice out of DTW is not the problem. Dtw reps over the years have always been the most militant. While I have not always agreed with their stances, they tended to vote/voice what they felt was the best for the pilot group as a whole. Novel concept. Msp, being the master base tended to be more "company friendly" and the widebody bases were just flat out of touch when it came to the bulk(domestic) of the airline. ATL scares me more than msp though. Mainly because dalpa has historically been more amiable to the company needs vs nwalpa. And with the way chairman Mao, oops Moak seems to be able to negotiate/dictate deals with the company with no opposistion/discussion with OUR elected reps until it is too late, I think ATL being the gorilla base needs some fighters. Just my opinion and I am sure I will be tarred and feathered by the dalpa faithful spinmeisters but so be it.
