You bring up a salient point. Trust me that is the interesting aspect of this. DAL has signed contracts for these services that go until 2020. Lets let the lawyers answer this question as it is one that has a ton of impact. I for one will not even project an answer on here for many many reasons.

How exactly would the union void it? Both the unions and the regionals have legal binding contracts. It is just a matter of who budges if you ask me.
I just don't know where DL would go from here. You would have to cancel both 9E and CZ contracts and then hopefully find a new home for all the rj's. If you bring the rj's to mainline then there is also big $$$ in training/hiring. If the have to be sold then good luck I guess.
Staplejob sure seems like the easiest thing for all parties at this point.
I am sure Delta has a plan. I just really, really, really, really want to know what it is.

Like I said, I do not think that the transaction has taken place, just a agreement for sale. Lots of mileage to go before this one is done.
I am also not saying that DALPA would agree with this, after all it is not like this section of the PWA is hidden from management

In other words, would it be wise to have the DALPA MEC representing the CPS pilots if we were to merge?

I do not believe that is how it was framed. The spin off the the CPS pilots to their own MEC was so that their pilots had a voice that was not the DALPA voice and DALPA would not serve two masters if it were to come to that.

Gotcha. Thanks. Just had to refresh my memory with this whole crazy week.
