Odds of Delta TA passing
From reading the opinions here and the polls it doesn't seem like this thing has any steam towards ratification. Who thinks the silent minority will contain enough kool-aid drinkers to pass this? I hope I'm wrong but my gut feeling is that this will pass.

I think the more we look at it the less we like. My odds are still 2-1 against. Kind of
like ObamaCare. We don't need to pass it to figure out what's in it.

A friend texted me from the lounge in NY yesterday. Said lots of support from the copilots. Not much interest at all from the Captains in voting yes. One of the reps told me from his feedback he expects it to pass easily. I am going to put together a letter to post at various bases why I am voting no. Time will tell. I will say that using terms like kool aid drinker ect.. Does nothing to make a intelligent point on voting no. Each pilot has a right to vote as he chooses. Lets hope the majority votes no.

Funny you are now voting no when you have been one of the stronger defenders of the TA.

Oh, and for the first time in my brief Delta career I was able to book the jumpseat to work! (to ATL) I love it! See, going DFW-MSP, it's all DCI, so I can't book it...sure would be nice to fix that DCI problem...hmmm...
