Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

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.

Spin! It works if not careful.:cool:

Yes, yes. We ought to be low-information voters with zero interest in our careers and/or industry. We ought not question the status quo, or hold "our" "union" accountable.

We must take what Mother Delta gives us (well, what's left after ALPA sucks her tit for a while, anyway) bend over, and beg for more. Or just pretend we're "relatively happy" and hope the BOD approved the Vaseline purchase request.

Are you by any chance Lee Moak?

Hope this helps:)

I guess some prefer rum, sodomy, and the lash. Naval tradition and all! Google it.

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...

That's no excuse. :p :D

Some good dots in the news surrouding the Virgin Delta announcement.

For Virgin to be profitable by 2015 significant structural changes will need to be implemented.
Look who's new on the Virgin BOD.
Amonge the newly announced codeshare routes there's some important stuff conspicuously absent...
Virgin not joining SkyTeam near-term as the Virgin CEO recently said will also significantly affect the current Transatlantic JV...

Cheers

Good thing bigger pays more isn't it?

By all means tsquare, let's push hard for longevity based pay. Then the Alaska pilots or Hawaiian pilots can ratio in across our entire seniority list as opposed to the similar aircraft they bring to the merger.
