Not having the best rep in the business regarding job security, how do people feel now that Delta are basically running the show? Im guessing a lot more positive? Does anyone worry that they might pull the plug/asset strip the LHR slots etc? Obviously no body can know, but being on the inside you get a feeling of the direct that the business is taking.

Thanks for the answers in advance!
Delta is the most profitable airline in the world. I imagine this is beneficial to the airline in terms of bulk purchasing and best practices. Too bad VS pilots can't match the Delta pilot pay - I met one senior 20-year 767 FO (MAN layover) who made $400K last year!
