People slipping through the cracks doesn’t, and that’s exactly what a flow allows, there were definitely a few bad apples from XJ/CZ that got through that wouldn’t have otherwise if there was no flow. Like I said DL management has no interest in a flow with Endeavor the only reason it’s needed is to get 35 76 seaters back to DCI, if there was any other reason the flow would have been done years ago. The timing of trying to get a flow with 9E while DL is trying to get 35 RJs back is ironic...

I paid around $1700 in dues last year. Multiply that +/- for the entire pilot group and the union gets around 2.5-3 million. That should be plenty considering most positions are “volunteer”?

We don’t have flow down right now, and a no furlough agreement till Fall of 2022, with the industry having exploding growth. There’s bigger items on the too do list in regards to scope (see JV equitable flying) ...no Delta pilot will lose sleep over 35 RJs not flying at DCI due to scope.
As others have said with Mitsubishi ending CRJ production and Embraer focusing on E2 production, unless some other manufacturer comes along with a 76 seat option that doesn’t violate scope the RJs will slowly go away

One union, supposed to be “solidarity”. Meanwhile, one is is advocating for career progression the other is advocating for financial gains that could jeopardize career progression. How is that not a conflict?!

I completely agree with you, all unions have there agenda. Having flown at 3 regionals, how ALPA isn’t one big conflict of interest blows my mind
