I hate to speculate on anyone's identity, but I agree that Alfa and Slow feel like they're part of the union. However they have useful information as well. This isn't a "No Voter" club, it's a discussion board. So I expect them here also, but I can judge them the same I judge the DPA guys, with a dose of skepticism. You can tune them out if you like, but this preemptive attack on another poster's possible participation makes you look a little suspect.

Whatever they have to say, refute it if you wish. I'll be all ears.

I absolutely want to hear what the union has to say. But I am also aware of the huge advantage they have when it comes to the flow of information.
I think the dissenters deserve to be heard as well. Its my opinion that in the past there has not been a fair fight.

I'm going to read this contract and decide for myself. If I favor it, then I guess I will be part of the machinery. If I oppose it, then I will be throwing sand in the gears.

Man trying to keep up on the action on the painfully slow Internet at the Sunspree in Aruba is killing me! (Van in 1 hr or otherwise I'd be on the beach: I can still see overboob from my room)

FTB, where's the chart for these hard fought pay raises? I mean we only gave these *******s a 10year loan and this is the industry leading POS they provide! If the whole things is this much of a slap I the face not only will I be a no vote but DPA will be one supporter stronger.

There is absolutely no reason to accept any change in scope that further erodes our flying or allows more flying at the regional level. No matter how Delta or ALPA try to sugar coat or present it via crafty block hours or percentages, any concession in this realm will result in a GUARANTEED LOSS OF JOBS for pilots on the current Delta Seniority list as we go forward.

When looking at the numbers, remember there is a cost to outsourcing.
