FWIW, F-DAL pilots like myself have moved down too, and a lot. I am one of the luckier ones that I am clinging on to my seat, but many have not. It was not one seat but two or three. I do not complain, why? It is over. I have moved on, and realize that we need to focus on tomorrows battles and no try to rehash ones that are in the history books. We can fix some things, but there is a lot that is what it is.

Want to fix the DC, write your reps and every LEC rep every day. Make it an issue that gains consensus. It has been explained on here why it is the way it is, and it appears that is not acceptable, so force your leadership to work for you.

Also, blaming ALPA for the SLI is short sighted. WE the pilots of DAL agreed and ratified the JPWA and the TFA. We are to responsible for what we have.
I have ZERO beef with the SLI. But don't think it's fair that I get less DC because of a pension that I don't even get. Not to mention I'll get less then a newhire. How is that fair?
