Then you have nothing to worry about sailing. DPA will be defeated and you can go back to threatening people who speak against ALPA.

You of course have no idea what you're talking about.

I know a number of them as well. NONE of them say they would ever want to return to ALPA. Their bitterness against ALPA is extremely strong. In fact, I haven't seen that level of hatred against ALPA since the pilots of Eastern Airlines.
