They no longer find it fun to post here for free, knowing that every word will be scrutinized and they'd be held to account. That's why they're not here anymore...not because of the nonsense theorized by RonRicco etal.

I suspect that due to "Contract Improvements" as provided by in C2012 that these aforementioned individuals have had the opportunity to work more and be more productive to the company; therefore flying ALV+15 every month in a base/seat that they were displaced/stagnated into has left them very little time to visit and/or post on this here website.

My "close the thread" was not because of your post.

It was due to Bar's.

Wait. I'm not sure I've ever flown a Air Force or Navy pilot at Delta Air Lines.

More of the issue is that nothing has happened... stagnation, no hiring, and just kicking the can down the street (the good bid is always next bid!). It will get better as the floodgates hopefully finally open up.

And notice that slow and alfa almost completely stopped posting after they lost their positions in DALPA...
