"Nothing says thank you like cash." (In reference to the thanks we get for doing our jobs in the weekly updates)

FWIW, that was a suggestion brought to the meeting by line pilots. It was well received by those in attendance.

And what's your ALPA scenario?

Here's mine:

More major contract changes without Memrat thru LOA. Our inspired monarch surrounded with his selfless advisors definitely knows best.

Continuation of scope erosion thru the use of Alaska's virtually open ended ability to fly DAL pax at the expense of DAL growth...Alaska continues to grow. DCI not sunsetted. Small jet scope not recaptured. Deltas smallest jet will seat 130. DCI's will eventually be allowed to seat 90.

A small compensation increase with COLA for the life of the contract in effect extending our bankruptcy contract. Dont concern yourself that when you turn 65 you just might enjoy the taste of cat food.

A shrinking DAL pilot group due to non-growth and minimal fleet recapitalization combined with expanded code shares. However, if you shine your shoes and wear your hat, you can keep telling yourself that DAL pilots are the shizzle.

Minimal scraps of workrule changes that give the appearance of improvement over our beaten down current situation. We will be allowed to stop hitting our hand with a hammer.

Outsourcing is good for the Delta pilots. Repeat this over and over.

What good would that do? You think Joe-6 gives a rat's a$$ how much his pilots make or don't make?

Hey, is there a forum for guys to come on and ask each other questions about scheduling, flying the line, and news about the airline? 'Cause this seems to be the Chest Thumping and Arguing About D(P)A(LPA) Forum.

I agree. I come to this site for news, updates and side boob. I make up my own mind about dpA and ALPA.

All of the arguing gets old.

Every thread on the DALPA forum gets hijacked by DPA'ers. Unfortunately, the same thing goes here. They have their own thread to discuss that movement, but they keep hijacking all the other threads too.

Then how are you gonna get more than a 5% raise? Please show your work.

Check out Facebook, I hear it's the shiznizz of what you are looking for...

I used to come on this site and read all of the unread posts. At one time, it was a great source for rumors and other information about Delta.

Now I just check the last page, to see if it's just the usual suspects beating the usual drum. It's getting old.

This DPA vs. DALPA garbage needs to be on it's thread, not this one. FWIW, this has turned me off to DPA (not that I was a huge fan of it previously).

I'm big time Bama and that is hilarious! It sums up the OT mistakes made by Bama unfortunately. Thanks for the laugh!
