Sorry, sinkrate, had to work that acronym in somewhere.
It's cool. I guess the problem here is that pilots probably overwhelmingly say in their surveys that they want to retain the swap board. So the union has to be careful about to approach this: do they simply get us wha we want, or what we should want.
In this case, I think I agree with what you wrote. I think there are some issues where pilots vote in the original survey that deserve a debate. If the MEC Chairman was to put out a couple of topics that he thinks we're getting wrong, make a case, then resubmit a survey on those points to see if we agree, I think it would be time well spent. I think I'd like to see a couple more feedback loops in the survey process.
Would you be agreeable to something like that, or would you howl that your expectations are being managed?
