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

Maybe they will be pansies like the legacies and take paycuts to ensure a profitable and growing airline. I think "constructive engagement" is the term:mad:

You turning down your "constructive engagement" payraises?

This is exactly the reason I opted not to go there. I saw their run at the top as over, and with the amount of hiring they did, it would be a horrible career.

DAL is bar none the best carrier to be at in this country. (For many more reasons that this)

I appreciate your enthusiasm, and I think we've got great potential, but it'll only be realized through great customer service, which requires great employee participation and interest, and management knows what to do. I think they're doing a lot of the right things, but C12 will be a big inflexion point in the future of this airline. The CAL-UAL merger will be another.

Time for Uncle DOT to turn the heat up on the legacies. :)

Who is that doctor Delta uses before you can come back off disability?

Catching up from all of last night's posts...

I believe you are talking about Dr. Tom Faulkner.

Great guy. Very helpful.

I agree. While I'm glad to be rid of him at DALPA, I'm not encouraged that any solution to the conflict of interest at ALPA is going to be forthcoming.

Just curious, who would you rather have had at DALPA? Or just name a style of a former leader that you think would have been more productive for us...

I certainly hope so...
