Joe & John, you are actually hurting your case by bringing it here. A better venue for your concerns is your own Reps, not a bunch of Delta line pilots.
News Flash! My reps and your reps are CURRENT NEGOTIATING exactly what we're discussing!

And I disagree 100% with your statement. The hard sell on any kind of get-together will be on the Delta line pilots, not management. There are too many pilots over there who think we're not worthy. That attitude needs to change. Fortunately SOME in your group don't feel that way. SOME of them are even running for ALPA office. Change comes slowly, but it WILL come.

And you're perpetuating it. Evidence your post below. (Hypocrite)

Quote: It can't be proven, but my suspicions are that the majority is going to find the military pilot who beat our 2,500 candidates for his flight spot is going to be hard to beat. Also the SR-71 pilots have the best stories, or at least the ones they can tell.
So 300 hours of single engine fighter time makes someone a better airline pilot than 8000 hours of 121 airline time? Got it!
