Usapa disaster
Excerpt from DAL Mec:
The idea of a runaway union like the DPA is not new. The most recent historical example illustrates just how ineffective a group like this can be. In 2008, several US Airways pilots formed a similar organization (USAPA), making virtually identical promises, using the same law firm as the DPA. Five years later, the only things USAPA has delivered are false hope and broken promises. The pilots don’t have a new contract. There is no change to the seniority system. The “professionals” who promised all these changes have been fired and they now work for the DPA. Let’s be clear, DPA’s efforts are a blueprint of the USAPA disaster and we cannot afford to repeat the US Airways fiasco here." |
And this accomplishes what???

It's up to Delta pilots whether they want to leave ALPA or not, but Delta with an independent union would be nothing like our disaster. Pretty poor example to use against it.

Actually, it would be EXACTLY like your disaster; because, like USAPA, DPA is a purely emotionally driven, anger filled, strategy.

So those DL pilots that don't support DPA would be dead set on it's destruction no matter the cost? Huh, I thought you guys were smarter than that. I guess not. Good luck.

Actually, it's the opposite. Most of the DPA supporters are dead set on the destruction of ALPA. No matter the cost.

Start calling them "Scabs" Cacti. ALPA can do no wrong when you get a perceived Windfall.
