Are the pilots at Delta divided with regard to the flow thru? If they are divided, does whether they were from NWA or the original Delta determine their outlook on the flow agreement?
Duke-
Lots of history in the answer to your question.
Short version -- it was done in the NWA bankruptcy under the threat of 1113 contract rejection.
Management was demanding more outsourced flying and the pilots were able to get some flow-through language in return. Management held all the cards at the time because they had a federal BK judge to help.
This is not a North/South thing at all. We all live under the same scope clause now.
