Well of course I don't expect anyone to admit that TDC as a motivation behind support for DPA. Also reference your comms statement, have you seen the streaming video from the chairman on the MEC website? That all said, and no personal disrespect intended, but I get a little suspect given some of our own previous N MEC history when I hear senior RB pilots saying "I'm here to help" wrt to scope.
Our current MEC is very junior by any historical standard - absolutely the last guys to give away scope. Even if under some evil Lee Moak mind control remote from Herndon there are new reps taking office March 1st that are a lot less company "kool aid" and the dynamic is such that anyone who is a giving mood could be recalled. The Moak hegemony is over
Hearing that the company is worried now that Lee is gone

The company being worried about ALPA is probably a good thing for us.
