This is not a DAL -S thing I would and have said that about the union before the merger. The ironic thing is the only guy I would never make this statement about is the guy we are talking about-KW. Done over and out.
It does make me sad that this is going on. I know KW and have nothing but the utmost respect for him in his former position. I believe that if he feels that his abilities are not going to be utilized, then there is nothing for him to do. He is not one to hangout, collect a paycheck and twiddle his thumbs. He would work tirelessly as the Contract Admin while flying almost full schedules (note: I do understand and support flight pay loss as long as it is not being abused).
What I find ironic about the Council 54 letter is the fact that some of these same individuals had a huge problem with the Security Chairman at NWA (I believe the feeling they had was that he was a "rogue" as he didn't just follow along with the senior agenda). I will say that this security chairman absolutely looks out for the junior pilots.
Nuff said and I am not going to debate the issue further. It is time that we move on and march together.
