Regardless of a letter written by Dan Ford, Comair/Delta is the entity angst should be directed toward. They are the ones who cannot create and execute a plan more than three days in advance. They are the ones that are constantly violating the pilot contract they agreed to. They are the ones who have elected to not cover lost pay by ALPA volunteers who perform work on both our and the company's behalf...even though Comair bills the union for that time anyway.
Certainly the MEC is not perfect, but blaming the union for taking action against violations by the company that are becoming more and more frequent is not the answer.
I think we have a "Stockholm Syndrome" pilot here. This is simply union busting 101, and a portion of the pilot group is not experienced enough to see it.
