Very disappointing to say the least. I will support the recall of anyone associated with this. They should have to live under it if it comes to pass.

What's the best way to get the NO vote out? I'm disgusted as well. ATL, SLC, and LAX guys and gals know what they need to do...

Boycott the Roadshows to send a message. No DPA for me, the ATL, LAX, SLC and the others need to be recalled.

Cutting Profit Sharing by 50% for all profit from $2.5 Billion to $6 Billion is, by far, the greatest disconnect between ALPA and Line Pilot direction we have ever seen. Additional concessions in Scope, Sick Leave, Bidding, TLV and others combined with unbelievably low increases in pay, DC contribution, per diem, vacation, etc., plus the complete disregard for lowering health care costs for active and retirees, Door Pay, Mininum Daily Guarantee and others signal that ALPA has finally lost all connection with you, the Line Pilot.

DPA uses Open Surveys with Published Results to learn about and then pursue Line Pilot desires. These surveys tie DPA hands on issues securely through transparency and accountability. DPA could never bring you an early Tentative Agreement, with conditions in it that directly violate survey results. You would know it from the published survey results and you would reject it. You would then use our innovative Open Recall system to take down the rogue leadership who would attempt such a violation. Two clicks is all it would take.

What troubles us most is that the MEC Chairman specifically said that pilots have demanded, "DO NOT TOUCH MY PROFIT SHARING", and yet the MEC is now about to vote on a proposal that does exactly that. How they can justify going against your wishes in this era of incredible profit is beyond reason. It is clear.....it is time for change. THIS IS OUR TIME!"

The 8 reps that voted NO are going to be character slain like nothing they've ever seen.

As has already been said...SEA, SLC, LAX, ATL pilots...you know what has to be done here. Nestor never ceases to disappoint.

Your dues money is being used to sell you a lemon. FPL = Flight Pay Loss. A bunch of guys are being paid to post on these message boards, delete Facebook posts, "tightly control the message", etc. It's a clear misuse of funds, especially considering the message being presented is being falsified by sins of omission.

Flight Pay Loss. It's the mechanism for anyone that (is approved by the Union) to drop their trips and get paid for doing Union work. Like posting Union propaganda on forums.
