Moak looks good in a suit and is a good spokesman. As good as he is, I have been most impressed by his team and how they work together. His leadership, first and foremost, is evidenced in his political offensive line. They've kept their quarterback on the field. |

It's interesting that if NWA had not been ALPA, the merger may have been way more favorable to Delta than the way it went.

I don't know how the JBlu relationship has worked, but I would envision a non-union airline has a group of managers led by a VP of some kind whose job it is to deal with pilot issues as they arise. Sometimes, that group argues on behalf of the pilots. Sometimes, they pacify the pilots and try to quell unrest. But their primary concern is to keep the company profitable, and ensure their boss (the CEO) is happy. How is this this different than DALPA today?

No different than if Moak had been elected as the Israeli prime minister, then he used that position to give Jerusalem to the Palestinians. Without question the United Nations and the entire Arab world would hail Moak as the great leader who finally brought peace to the Middle East. But what would Israelis think of their leader's actions? Maybe they'd say he looks good in a suit. :rolleyes: Carl |

More favorable???? How much more - a staple? I lost 6+ years or nearly 1900 numbers. I was on furlough during the merger talks and no one really discusses it anymore...but how the heck did an arbitrator award that?

Bole Ethiopan Restaurant, on the south side of Virginia Ave. just past the graveyard (a couple blocks west of the Crowne Plaza). Highly recommend.
