You go directly to managment and ask to DIRECT DEAL. But first tell me when that has ever, ever worked. You are ignorant about history and management tactics. Management is looking out for themselves and shareholders, not pilots. Delta management would have bent those guys over and "taken whatever they needed" without ALPA. And just who do you think ALPA is? Your post is one of the most naive and stupid statements that I have ever heard.

here we go again with the old pilots crying about age discrimination. If they were 20 years younger on furlough they would be singing a different tune. It is easy to support something that is going to benefit yourself isn't it. And by the way I am living on $1500 a month. If you need some finicial advice pm me and I will be glad to help.

Thanks for chiming in with the no real experience, 16 year old perspective. I don't know anything about GA flight instructing so maybe I'll go over to that forum and give some advice on how to run their lives. Thanks for the offer, but if I need financial advice I'll find someone who can at least spell financial.

Maybe I am naive, I haven’t been a member of ALPA for about 10 years. The point I was trying to make is that it seems pilots at DAL and other ALPA carriers have been “bent over” by various managements all the time paying their dues to ALPA.

We're getting off topic.

What do you think would have happened without a union? If you want to discuss union representation, start another thread and learn something from all the experience hanging around here.
Back to the topic:
If we take another survey and members want to change our position on age 60, I won't quit like these losers that picketed or wanted to picket.. That's the difference between them and me. They are selfish pricks only interested in themselves.
