So, "you won't bother to vote anyway" is a proper response to my "his shirt is right" and "your attitude, if displayed by ALPA, will kill it in the long run?"

Please, reel it in and tell me:

1.) How Forgot's shirt was out of context. (I mean hell, aren't you agreeing with his premise of that he is not trusted to vote for ALPA president when you argue that "we" as pilots don't vote enough?

2.) How an attitude like yours displayed by ALPA will not eventually lead to ALPA's being voted off the property?

If not, just say "I'm going to change the subject, or "I don't want to talk about it," or in the title box type in "deflection alert."

If you want to talk about participation and griping, I can do that too. But, at least follow the flow of the argument. You might find some agreement before the argument.

Thanks in advance.

I like those, scambo.

Read a note on the latest meeting notes about FPS vs. Worldflight. We will not be returning to worldflight as NW was looking for a replacement for it, and so are we for FPS.

More to come. :)

There was a move several years ago to look at a replacement to the WF because it was old and not well supported...but it went no where...however there was not a move to replace the Jepp flight planning. FPS should be replaced, would expect a descision to be made soon, now if would could also get some format changes.

Who would want to be a flight attendant anyway? For an extra month of training, you can be a pilot? (I know, old joke told over and over thousands of times, not funny)

All that sounds great. The transfer of representation is what concerns me the most though. If done poorly, this could have a decimating effect on, not only Delta pilots, but all union pilots (as this would effectively kill alpa-or at least turn it into an RJ only union as United would surely follow us out the door)

I'm really on the fence about whether to send in the card or not. What's the peanut gallery thinking? And why?

Are there any DPA meetings scheduled? I'd like to see some more of this before I fall on the wrong side of the fence.:confused:

Atl 320?
 
Anyone else hearing this will be on the MOAB in January?

2nd hand from a guy who knows a guy. Anyone have a better source?

Here is another dumb question, is there anyway to get my old scheds from deltanet. I want to update my log book for some dumb reason, I need to get back to March of 2010, not too bad.
