We have two guys monitoring Domestic and International Code Share Compliance for the MEC. One has been there a while and the other one is a very smart and capable 2001 hire who I have a ton of respect for. Simply put, I trust em to do their jobs.

In that case, whenever there is a MEC meeting, it could be standard practice for the reps to come back and give us confirmation we're in compliance. That would be plenty. I don't need a full report at monthly intervals.

Hey ER guys and gals;

Notice the new airports that we have pictorial SAQ for?

You aren't going to get the kind of unity you're looking for with weak leadership and a lack of any real, compelling objective. DAL management went for the throat and tried to destroy our careers during BK. And now that the BK/emergency has been over for several years, they refuse to even lift a finger to try and make it right. Even worse, DALPA refuses to so much as ASK them to make it right. Unity will fall into place nicely when it is clear that we can rally around the objective of correcting this. But it ain't gonna happen with Lee Moak type leaders and with people like yourself, who rationalize every excuse they can find not to fight for it.

So, which one of them DISCOVERED the increased gross weight issue?

I agree that unity is a very important part of the equation (although definitely not the only part). But that brings me right back to the point I was making in my post that prompted the 'if you're so smart, why don't you run for office' question:
