Guess I just don't see why the big push for them. Why not just push for the aircraft then start hiring on the DAL certificate so it's fair game to all?

Either way IMHO this would never happen unless everyone at mainline decides it's worth more than their pay. History has shown the top majority always stick it to the bottom.

The push IS for the aircraft... getting the pilots too is just a by-product.

"Fair game to all"? What tree did you fall out of!?! Very little that could be called "fair" happens in this profession. That's not pessimism, that's just reality.

Does anyone have a little more specifics of what was discussed at the MEM and DTW Mec meetings?

A lot. But there were three resolutions passed in DTW. At least one in MEM. From the after action report, it sounds like LM got an ear full in MEM, and BK got another ear full in DTW.

Good, it's about time they start to hear more from the silent majority.

No offense to those that like Moak but he has his fingers in too many pies. There is a chance he may be getting payola from management. It might be time for a regime change.
