why all the blather about a non issue?

from toys to ex wives to dpa......dubua-tee-eff are you doing worrying about what any other pilot is doing with his free time. and money?

Very refreshing, with alpa you always need to decipher where they are lying and where the truth is!

It look them almost 6 years of badgering to finally say how many active cards there are.

If you want years of nothing and even more lackluster results, the DPA is for you!

Without DPA all the individuals calling for transparency and accountability would be just that individuals, easily ignored. I'm not saying they should/should not be continuing their drive but without it we would be blind and in black hole level darkness as line pilots.

Bob, it seems as if you are an uninterested neutral party. That's not the case though. Aren't you the guy that either designed the DPA logo, and/or uploaded it to their website?

Are you a "neutral" or really deeply and intricately involved with DPA?

are you sure you want that history lesson? on a public board?

This would be so much worse without DPA.

We are getting our butts kicked and we are going to go lower.

In the end we will be begging for a single.

What a waste.

You have over 3000 "members" that won't even update their cards...what does that tell you. The only thing the DPA is doing is dividing this group. YOU are part of the problem, not the solution.

That's why it's named DPA: the Divisive Pilot Ass.

When I turned a DPA card in 6 years ago, I was under the impression DPA was either going to get an election or disolve within a year since that's how long a card is good for. DPA was openly saying that. At this point, I regret ever sending a card in and will never renew one. it was obvious years ago that DPA is not taking over.

They did not just say that they put it in writing. Sadly they lied.

No worries, Alpa is the best union ever!
