I'm going to have a seat lock for upcoming training. If they open a NEW category in a NEW base do seat locks still apply? (i.e. 717 SEA)

Thx,

Oh, and whoever gave Europe eZed advice to me a few months back, thank you, it was much easier than I though it would be.

Wow...I would not want to be a blond-haired blue-eyed guy on a Brazil layover tonight. The Germans just handed out an @ss whoopin'

Just to be crystal-clear, I am not talking about about any type of covert wink-wink type of organized effort. I am talking about Pilots displaying leadership and initiative, preventing issues from even arising by being pro-active. If we stopped doing this, and most surely would, our performance would suffer badly.

Also under the RLA we can make a lot of noise and start taking all the steps leading up to a strike. Even if we were not allowed to strike if we were to slowly jump through the required hoops, with all the accompanying hoopla, passengers bookings could decrease.

Between just these two items and there are probably others, but I only have about 30 seconds of thought into this, we are not entirely without recourse.

Do you seriously believe that you have been so abused here to be talking like this already? (Hopefully), this forum is not a microcosm of what the majority of DAL pilots feel like. (With the exception of your (disclaimer) that we would have to jump slowly through the required hoops, which by the way are a long long long way off) I would wager that the vast majority have little to zero interest in acting like what you seem to be advocating. Maybe I'm wrong, and maybe I have been ingesting too much koolaid for too many years, but from what I have seen, most pilots are pretty happy. Your post just makes you seem...... miserable.

I'm willing to take years...forever. Whatever it takes. Setting a hard number is stupid...kinda like Barry in Iraq and Afghanistan.

If it takes much past the amendable date, RA can kiss his labor relations high ground goodbye. Picketing, muckraking, you name it. Then Delta becomes just another slime bag airline.

That's some serious negotiating capital. I only hope MD has the stones to use it.

This negotiating environment is the best we'll ever have. Time to make it count.

Well... maybe not. Germany and Brasil go way back, BFF.

It's complicated like that.
