the fact that what JC Lawson did with the RJDC
which flat is not true. Re-read my reply.
There is no doubt Lawson screwed up. But who has the duty to protect Delta pilots? Lawson? Hardly!
Look what had to happen before Lawson even had the opportunity to stick his foot in his mouth:
(1) ALPA allowed alter ego operations on the Delta property providing a source of replacement pilots,
(2) The Delta pilots and their Representatives failed to negotiate effective scope which would prohibit the replacement of Delta pilots with alter ego pilots,
(3) The Delta MEC failed to negotiate with Delta Inc a change in the subsidiaries policies regarding the hiring of furloughed pilots.
If you're smart, you hold the guy responsible that WAS responsible. Lawson had no responsibility for the well being of Delta pilots. Frankly, I don't care what he says, he does not represent me.
