DALPA's rabid marketing of C2012 and rationalization of "where it went" followed by subsequent prolonged stagnation is the most recent.

The 76 in the ATL it sounds like....

Sounds about right.

You ever think the focus on the policy manual is to restore some of the lost trust from ALPA's unilateral actions?

Not a ATL pilot but if your candidates are focusing on theses items its probably so they can get the pay, scope, working conditions and benefits the pilots deem most important.

Dude. It's been 3 months, and 6ish since section 6 ramped up. Now it's some of the lowest block hour flying months and the block hour plan for next summer isn't available for our perusal yet. I don't see how that demonstrates getting pooped on. More you're frustrated because you planned your future around an unsustainable dream and the credit card debt is getting to be a burden?

...or maybe he planned his future around the concept that his union would look out for his (and not the company's) best interests?

We won't make that mistake again.

That argument works both ways. The short time from fervent sales pitch and the company securing a huge productivity increase to the current tone/language coming from ALPA/management is instructive. And yet none of the preexisting conditions when the contract was voted on have really changed. Not only that but we spent some future retirements in the process.

It's a sales job that was not honest and no two ways about it is leading to more stagnation for those trapped in the middle and at the bottom................Dude.

Spin away.

Yes, that's the site. Always solid info.

I think there is a way for you to join council 20 if it is more regionally beneficial for you.:eek:
