As has been pointed out, the OP is in error about the very process of uniform selection. All problems come back to JP, until there's another MEC Chair, and then it'll all be their fault, check our history (or probably yours, for that matter). Here's the reality, few CAL pilots are excited about JP as MEC Chair and that includes some on the MEC. However, there's a lot of trust in our MEC collectively and as long as they see fit to have Pierce as the MEC Chair, I accept their decision. If anyone finds enough support to replace enough JP supporters in the MEC to recall him, then that's the will of the pilots. Right now that's not the case and a constant throw it against the wall and see what sticks approach accomplishes nothing.
