“Our contract has been placed in jeopardy as a result of Delta's petition for bankruptcy protection, ... The fight that has just begun will be intense and difficult.”
“This is a day we hoped would never come. However, we are prepared for this event. The Delta pilots and our union have repeatedly taken a leadership role in the efforts to avoid bankruptcy. Unfortunately, Delta's plan to avoid bankruptcy was not successful. Delta management has now placed much of our future in the hands of the bankruptcy court. We will use all legal means to protect our contract.”
