DALPA Conflict of Interest

[JoeMerchant]

Just to clear a point, there are only a handful of 2007 hires still on probation. Those, for the most part, are on military leave.

Delta's probation lasts one year or 400 flight hours, whichever happens first. Most folks got off probation within six months.

Is it fair to have a 1999 hire go below a 2007 hire regardless of "probation"?

Depends, if one is an ASA pilot, and one a Delta pilot, the Delta pilot should always be senior.

Damn, that's a nice rule.

Thank goodness we aren't merging then.....Now back to the original point that you ignored....Is it fair to put a NWA 1999 hire below a 2007 Delta hire?

Depends on where each sits on their list. If a 2007 Delta hire is 10% up while the 99 NWA hire is only 5% up, then yes.

....that's fine....but then expect one pissed off group that isn't unified after the decision comes down....

We are the only profession that puts zero importance in "time of service" or "longevity".....That is our downfall...

I think that you can make a case either way, from either side. Strict interpretation of ALPA merger policy says yes in this case.

Is there a reason you are involved in something which has nothing to do with you? You seem much more interested in Delta goings on than ASA. Wee wee envy I guess. Most of the guys I fly with that know you pretty much all agree on that. Is there anybody over there that likes you?
