I know all y'all are stressed and upset right now that your idol, Sir Richard, has not given you a very good TA, but please keep a sense of humor in all this! Not every comment or joke is meant to desire that DAL goes out of business!

Although, you do have to admit, sometimes the comparisons with Pan Am are eery ... getting rid of big airplanes to become more of a NB domestic airlines, for one...

No, my friend, you should be worried about the opposite ... Especially if y'all vote no and tick off Sir RA--he will turn his wrath away from Alaska, JetBlue, Southwest, the ExIm Bank, the ME3, and anyone else right now that he is picking a fight with and direct it on all y'all. Bless his heart.

Don't worry, I will let both of y'all be my copilot ... Or maybe Gloopy can be my A F/A!

One of the top 3 biggest disappointments in the TA is that we didn't lock down SEA as a DL "hub" WRT the AS code share abuse potential by DL management within the DL code.

That preserves Alaska's ability to gut SEA anytime they and DL management come to an agreement. IOW, it is a huge lack of scope.

Speaking of lack of scope though, its still lightyears better than Alaska's scope.

And yet another Pan Am reference. Classic.

I get you're mad at DL because their management isn't gifting your new squadron DL code flying as much anymore. You're so upset by that you're willing to throw your alliance behind ME3's efforts to gut the vast majority of the US industry in the hopes that you will be one of the few to prosper as their little west coast code share buddy. The enemy of my enemy is my friend and all that. I get it.

This TA lacks in pay IMHO. But the pay is still far greater than AS.
This TA lacks in scope, period. But the scope is still far greater than AS.
DL's financials on all levels are light years above Pan Am, yet you keep not so subtly or indirectly referencing a DL liquidation.

School spirit is cool I guess. I just wouldn't take it that far but more power to you.

You mean your A as in Captain, and F/A as in fn'A?

I'd be honored. I'll even buy the first and third beers and do the nice weather walk arounds.

Gloopy, all of that, and he doesn't even know what put Pan Am out of business.

Hint, for the small noisy bug: It wasn't a strike.

Dude, I think this may help ...

How to Improve Your Sense of Humor: 9 Steps (with Pictures)

... Especially if your new TA passes, as big brother DAL will be concerned about your blood pressure!

Speaking of scope, how is DAL's retirement plan doing (for those on property prior to 2007, of course!)?

We've got to keep plugging away. I have faith that the majority will step up to shoot this down.

Like scoop said a couple days ago...we only need slightly less than 20% of C12 "Yes" voters to vote "no" and it's done.

There have already been a substantial number of those guys in this small sample size.

I'm very optimistic.
