Does this timeline for aircraft delivery seem just a little coincidental with anyone else, or am I reading too much into it? THAT'S RIGHT, THE AIRCRAFT DELIVERY COINCIDES WITH CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS----DALPA?

What the statement is, is the "large dangling carrot" hanging from the 15# weight fishing line. Once the schmuck's in "union-land" are convinced that aircraft deliveries are dependent on a less than optimal "signed" contract, once again, everyone else at Delta (& pmNWA) will have been "bent over at the waist" without even the courtesy of a "reach around".

Enough venting for now. My apologies for posting on the forum when I've had
a "venti" worth of caffeine at Starbuck's.

Fly safe,
