DonkeyDude and others, I cant beleive that many of you guys posting on this and other boards that work or worked for Delta (or maybe dont)continue to distort the "pay that the pilots gave up in 96" and Leo's "contract is a contract". Even DALPA publishes this stuff to missinform it's pilots workforce. If you are going to talk about these things, at least know what the truth is. It is amazing how many Delta guys dont know the real story because of DALPA's propaganda expertise. Here are a couple of links of one senior Delta pilot and an airline analyst who have written rebuttals against Mr Lay's (DALPA Rep) for Plane Buisiness. They wanted people to know the real truth, not the distorted one. I have read other statements from Delta pilots concerning this issue and they were all in line with these two so I will use them as an example.

Both of these articles will give you a little insite of the propaganda machine.
Yes I work for DELTA, and yes I pay ALPA dues. I do beleive that the pilots have legitimate gripes and concerns, but if we are going to debate, lets use the real info instead of spreading rumors. Mr Ley's article is also there which you can read.
