DALPA returning to table a positive!

[Heavy Set]

ATR,

It was a good post because it reflected the views of a lot of mainline pilots (and outsiders like me) who believe that they are being sold out by so-called "team players." That's the point. Management has succeeded in dividing and conquering - they have pitted one group against another and exploited each group's insecurity (look out for your own best interest and nothing else...). I am sure Leo is laughing from Martha's Vineyard...

Who is selling them out and how?

 

[On Your Six]

I think what Heavy is trying to say is that there appears to be a pro-management viewpoint (i.e., "Just accept whatever Management wants and save our a$$es") prevelant among the ASA and Comair pilots - especially those on the board. Everyone knows that the industry has changed - the LCC environment will REQUIRE lower DAL pilot wages. That is not the issue - the issue is how much and supporting what "new plan"? Restructurings can follow the USAirways/Dave Siegel (just cut costs to the bone and pray for the best) route or the "novel" route that incorporates new thinking combined with cost cuts. Nobody wants to cross the street BEFORE looking both ways - and that is the impression that a lot of the Delta guys I know are getting from their ASA/Comair counterparts.

Rushing to cut pilot wages will not be the only silver bullet here - there are many other things to be done and yet not much has been outlined...

I must be reading this statement out of context. Do you actually think that Comair/ASA pilots are being led on a leash by management? We "just accept" whatever management wants us to do?

Really??
