Scambo;
Great post. I will submit that I beleive that DPA is a symptom of a few failures in ALPA. I would love to see more pilots involved in the process. My concerns over an independent get their foundation from what I see as the threats coming our way. We will only have one chance to get it right. I do not want to see us or this industry steamrolled by the power of money and influence in the name of cheaper fares.
