The worst part is that ALPA didn't even mention this as a possible outcome. Didn't urge us to consider any of the many less-desirable iterations of the PWA that most folks will become intimately familiar with very soon.

All ALPA did was attempt to fluff, brainwash, and strong-arm (most of) us into voting "yes."

Moreover, the folks who did their due diligence and raised the BS flag were castigated and persecuted by "our" union's propagandists.

Bravo, ALPA. Thanks for the leadership.

When you don't have a union that is willing to do the right thing and step in to protect pilots from themselves, this is the result. Our reps should never have let it get to a vote. But by passing it along, they enabled management to steal a lot of candy with very little in return. I agree that the consequences of this are only just beginning to be seen. Staffing the schedule with reserve pilots will become the norm.

I am sure you abuse the policy without working harder. Did you flow through or did you apply and get hired? Just curious.

Once you are on the list you are in the club. No one puts up this type of crap. We treat every DAL pilot the same and there are no hyphenated DAL pilots.

Face shot! Ouch! Fact is, you fly a pilot to the point where his body doesn't have time to recuperate he's more likely than not to eventually get sick as a result. But who wants to think about facts when they can take a shot at assailing someone for pointing out the negative effects of a very poor TA?
