Let the hate flow through you though. Goooood. Goooood.
No hatred, bro, just facts... but we all know you aren't interested in how it really went down, are you?
Alaska Airlines was 'shocked' when Delta partnership unraveled - Puget Sound Business Journal

And you keep referring to Brad in that way, but it will soon be revealed that Anderson's real position and title is:
Brad's Executive Of Tools, Communication and Hatred


"The competition with Delta, and other airlines, will result in a stronger Alaska, Tilden said." So, thank you, Gloopy and all y'all--probably the best thing that has ever happened to AS ... and soon to JB, as well!

I'm having a difficult time following your irrational posts and comments on this forum. It seems to me you deltoids have been upset because Alaska has been "taking our flying". We've all heard the rants from you guys over he past 4-5 years. What puzzles me is why are you still upset with Alaska when you deltoids got "your" flying back. Seems to me like at least one Delta pilot slipped though the cracks at the shrink when getting hired. Just saying.
Forgive him - he's a little sore from being delivered a substandard TA by his union yesterday afternoon. I'd love to be a fly on the wall in some Delta cockpits today. Lots of irrational chatter and vitrol running rampant.

Thanks for the explanation. Question: do you think they'll find a way to place blame on Alaska and Jet Blue for their substandard TA. Just wondering.

Probably not - but if this passes, they should probably go ahead and elect Richard Anderson as their new MEC Chairman. Nothing would change, but there wouldn't be anymore confusion as to who runs the show at DALPA anymore.

Don't bother FLY
It's his first airline and Delta does nothing wrong and he knows everything.

This is the guy who said the Jetblue pilot group was in unprofessional because we were not ALPA.

It's just a waste of your time and no matter what FACTS you use he won't care.

Um, you sure you aren't talking about Tilden and the Alaska MEC?

Just kill us now gloopy why wait till we are a bigger threat?
You were military right, attack now do it. It shouldn't be hard you are part of the best airline ever, just do it so we can all get our apps ready.

Can someone explain "capacity dumping"? I'm a little confused, if that's when a competitor decides to add flights to a particular city, isn't that just good ol' capitalism? Or is that the buzz word used today by the big guys against the smaller guys who decide to compete?

So have you seen the TA? I sure haven't nor have any other DL pilots that aren't under non-disclosure until next week.

Your observations of DL are always so insightful.

Rumor mill was spot on last time around. I hope it's dead wrong this time; although probably not as badly as you do.
