Well, we all knew it was coming.
Delta is a widebody airline- its really all they care about.
Thanks to the many at DALPA who know the damage they just did-
And thank you to the yes voters who continue to provide me the motivation to work my business- further proof that pilots will always take the easy road and fail to support their own career.
As for southwest comments- I apologize to all my peers for dragging the Swa name into this. I honestly tried not to, but the apologists cant not do that. But be proud, Swapa is now the UNDISPUTED standard bearer for the industry.
There is a big difference between voting for your own pay- and voting to expand the whipsaw market where other pilots who will have no vote, and no leverage, will have to scrap out their living.
The good news is that there are fewer and fewer who choose to enter this profession, as they know they will be sold out.
That's the legacy of DALPA as the ALPA leaders in outsourcing: the next generation of pilots will have a worse career and choose to do something different.
Congratulations on the gains- as there are some- but be ashamed of the expansion of LARGE RJ's. The timing couldn't be worse- and the weakness couldn't be greater in that regard.
You are what we thought you were.
SELLOUTS.
