That is exactly what I want. I fly with guys that have single digit seniority numbers, and guys in the 9,000's. Not one of them says that they don't want this. My DTW reps want this. You say your reps want this. How could this not have made the bullet point list of what O'Malley says we want? How could he have not heard this? Is Moak's voice louder? Is ALPA national's voice louder? So far, his letter shows me that these voices are indeed louder.

I agree. Would have been another great bullet point for Mr. O'Malley. If he agreed with you/us that is.

That will be an interesting survey. Will the question be: "How would you feel about a 75% pay increase while also helping our fellow ALPA brothers at the regionals increase their quality of life?"

Or will the question be: "Would you be willing to strike over any additional jobs being outsourced from Delta Air Lines to any other entity?"
