The takeaway is, Delta's pilots' clout with ALPA is nowhere near what we've been led to believe. The Delta pilots' agenda in this case was derailed by another legacy's pilot group (with plenty of help from most regional pilot groups, who have the most to loose if Delta pilots pay lower dues). Good thing we subsidize pilot groups whose agendas are no aligned with ours. Yay, ALPA. |

When did DALPA issue a dues refund? I haven't gotten a refund yet.
"Last week, after careful consideration, your MEC voted to refund a substantial portion of the SMRA to the Delta pilots. After reviewing our current and projected finances, the MEC elected to refund SMRA excesses from 2004, 2006 and 2010. These were years when excess funds existed that were not subsequently used in deficit years. In total, $7,081,729 will be refunded on a pro-rata basis." |
will the common rating of the A350 & A330 have any bearing on our WB order?

Is that why she started wearing this shirt? Considering she wasn't even born until the second term, I figure the shirt must have come from your dresser after a night Taylor "was up studying and accidently fell asleep in the library." At least when Putin sees this, his blood will run cold and there will be no Tupolev's challenging the sovereign airspace of the United States of America! Way to go Buzz! And take off that Che Guevera shirt Bar, you look ridiculous. ;) Carl |

Sorry, my cynical alter-ego got ahold of my IPad while I was outside. E |

It was less than two years ago. I gave the entire amount to the Delta Pilots Charitable Fund. |

I'm confused. I thought one big reason we didn't need to leave ALPA is that ALPA never interfered with Delta pilots...the implication being, Delta pilots can get whatever they want from ALPA. Obviously not the case.
