Q: Who is running the organization?
A: Every Delta pilot that wishes to assist will be given the opportunity. Many applications have been received to date for specific positions and for non-volunteer support as well. Many people have specific skills that will be employed at the appropriate time. All membership applications will always be kept confidential. No sign up list will be posted. Only total numbers will be discussed. All those volunteering to serve are initially being kept confidential until we achieve a “critical mass” consisting of the Financial Oversight Committee and individual base representatives with alternates. At that point, the structure will be significant enough to bear the weight of competing interests. The volunteer group will collectively agree on the timing of the release of organizational names. We want people to jump in with as little stress as possible. Great pains are being taken to staff positions with volunteers from all backgrounds. Pre-merger affiliations are taken into account, but we would like to move as far beyond that issue as possible.
You and the others are absolutely right. I also believe that with no leadership this goes no where. If they are at all serious they will have to man up and come forward. If and when that happens, all bets are off in this climate depending on their agenda and their plan for representation.
Communication will be the key to resolving this for either DPA or ALPA.
