I'm very proud of the Delta pilots today. Very proud and thank you on behalf of the passenger major airline profession. Finally, somebody saw through the sell job. Excellent decision.

Stage one is complete but don't take your eye off of the ball just yet. This TA needs some MAJOR overhauling and not just a few tweaks. That'll be the true test.

my fear is they improve one or two things and try to get it to pass again..let's not let that happen until they take all these concessions away!

THIS.

WE need to come together and push for everything....not just everyone's little pet issue.

Pay, Sick, Profit sharing, Scope (high end/low end), OE, Vacation, Scheduling, Training ..... all of it.

If we break up and start trying to 'tweak' only the things that each individual cares about, then this is all for naught.

This TA needs to be dropped into a paper shredder. The house needs to be cleaned, with bleach, and perhaps replaced (DPA).

Then, surveys should go back out to the pilots. Maybe they'll pay attention this time.

Then, it's back to square one at the negotiating table.

I have 20 years of flying to go. I'm not under time pressure. I live below my means. So, I'm not under money pressure, either.

Lets take our time and achieve a TA that is appropriate to the times we are living in, and one that is more reflective of the sacrifices we have made in our careers.

Above all, I want my dignity. Anything that disrespects me, as a professional, will be rejected.
