History | Weather Underground

Really? I don't even remember the specific day, but I was in shorts and it was a nice day. It was hot getting my new dogs and i was sweating like crazy. Maybe it was cooler where you live I cannot even recall the specific day or if it was a day in March just it was a nice day. I was enjoying it with the family getting my boys some rescued pups when the C44 chair called me about me saying it was a good day for a BBQ and that there was a dpa bbq event. I told him I would edit it to include at home. He seemed happier. The whole level of concern is impressive but I was not in the middle of the whole DPA thing.

Like I said, I never have supported DPA and want the pilots that have to re-engage in their union. Most are ALPA pilots in good standing and have every right to voice concern. A few tweaks here and there to ALPA would make much of this stuff go away. We need pilots focused on improving the profession not trying to build a new association. Fixing what we have is the preferred option of many.Always been my position.
