Will Delta Agree to Northwest's Offer Without Pilot Consent?

Well, The DAL boys sure got up early this morning. The truth is that none of these DAL posters know what really happened during negotiations, nor do I. I believe both companies bring much to the table as a combined airline. We as pilot groups don't bring anything. We must remember that we are just hourly employees, not cheerleaders for Anderson and Steenland. This merger will take place if the hedge funds that hold percentages of DAL and NWA stock want to reap their profit, and they'll want to do this before a recession. Because of this, when the merger occurs, both pilot groups will be faced with binding arbitration. This generally makes only one pilot happy; Seniority #1. Let's come to a reasonable solution.
