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

If DAL axes any of the Republic flying (Chautauqua and Shuttle America), Delta is on the hook for the aircraft...if the cessation of services is terminated before the contract's expiration. It's spelled out very clearly in the Annual Report. I think all of the Shuttle E-jets are owned and the 145's are leased, so DAL would have to buy or lease the aircraft assigned to the contracts.

Good, take back those aircraft and let Delta Pilots fly them. This outsourcing has gone on long enough.

Ill fly one of those ERJs at Delta, you bet. Keep it in-house baby! Get rid of this Republic Airlines.

Excellent post check, the irony of it all is if ALPA lawyers that we paid for would, evidently, if given the chance argued in court that RAH is not a single carrier.

Is National that desperate for new members? I mean how much of our money do we send them again? Maybe it needs to go to $0 for a little attitude correction.

Clearly that answer is YES. I bet that APA will start this fight long before ALPA.

APA only answers to ONE pilot group with ONE interest!!!

I agree...The above posts are on target and should be followed through with. WE make ALPA happen...was it $23M a year we give? Make them fight the fight that we want them to fight - not what they think they can win or want to fight. It's like talking to your doctor and he doesn't do what you ask because your NOT informed...MY ASS we're not informed! Many of us did close to 10 hard years on the street, much due to ALPA and the regional growth. Get this flying in our house where it belongs. PERIOD!

President Carl?

Trump and Carl? I'm starting to think given the way they conduct themselves and their wallets and that they could very well both run for President, Carl was maybe separated at birth with the Donald or they're very much a like.

Hmmm... whoa... First Lady? Wow, between Kate Middleton in England and Trump's wife there in D.C. I'm going to have to beg to go to any state dinners between the U.S. and U.K.

LOL! But ALPA knows the Delta pilots will just bend over and take it before they leave ALPA!!!

I was once talking to a very wise union man and suggested that our system sucked. He told me that we needed to change the ALPA by laws or constitution (I forget what term he used.) to change the way we elected our leaders.
