Honestly, you're not going to convince the DAL group that your contract was better. Maybe it goes to the heart of the SLI discussion, and maybe some of the beliefs on either side qualify as "faith-based". Maybe it's because you voted overwhelmingly for the JCBA that we don't believe you, or maybe it's simply because all pilots want to believe they are better that we never will believe you. Regardless of the reasons we won't buy into this, the truth is we don't care what the QOL was a Northwest. And I don't see how anyone should care.
Who is being divisive?

If the fNWA was that much better, good for you. I hope you enjoyed while you had it. Unfortunately, that's not the contract you live under. So why not talk about a better contract for all Delta pilots, including you of course, and leave it at that?
Your comment is like saying that it doesn't matter that c2k was so much better or that at one time we didn't outsource as much flying. Quit talking about scope because what we have now is what we have now and forget about the past.
