Why would you jump to the conclusion that he (or his "kind") is in a leadership role at DPA? I certainly don't assume you have a leadership role at DALPA.

Hmmmmm maybe you have a point about that... but he still does not exemplify the type of group that I would care to be associated with.. but whatever works for you. If you choose to defend him that's your business... I'm done with this, so you get the last word.

Finally had enough donuts, huh T?



And I don't know if you're really "done with this." You don't exactly have the best track record on that. I'm just sayin'....

You don't have to be personally associated with them, but you WILL be paying dues to them inside of 18-months.

Looks like Delta just got a second slot from SLC to DCA after Obama enacted the latest FAA funding bill, and apparently it will be a 738 leaving in the afternoon out of SLC, returning the next morning back to SLC. AA will fly a 757 from DCA to LAX, and UAL will start nonstop SFO. I think USAir also got some slots, but has not decided yet where to fly them.

USAir will probably fly a Dash 8-100 from DCA-PHL with their new slot.

I declare with a 0 raw and 0 credit, that I am in bucket 2 for the month of March.

I declared it so therefore I is. Just like when Michael Scott declared bankruptcy, he shouted it as loud as he could til the accountant explained there was actually some paper work involved.

Slow,

Did you google " fa millionaires" ? I wrote compensation, not pay. Anyhow, when gaap changed for how corporations grants stock options, the grants went away.
Would you acknowledge that we in the past and currently have a decent contract?

Some of you guys are starting to appear to be so pro DPA that you are also becoming anti Delta pilot. Maybe I'm wrong, but I get the feeling that some of you are rooting for DALPA to totally screw things up even more just so you can say, "See, I was right."

I get the fact that you are ticked off at DALPA. Most pilots around here have some serious gripes with them. But, let the record show for me that even though I think DALPA has dropped the ball on many issues, it's contract time. Meaning, it's time to get paid. Like paid what we should have been getting paid 5-7 years ago.

Right now, DALPA is up to bat, and if they strike out by bringing home a crappy TA, then it's time for them to go. But, until then, because I'm wearing the same uniform as them, I sincerely hope they hit a home run.

Let's not root to have our noses cut off, so in 18 months we can spite Sailing, Slow, Alpha, or Ts. That's just dumb, and personally I feel I've been underpaid long enough.

I hope I'm wrong and hope everyone feels the same.....
