Meanwhile, the senior management at the MEC level lives a quality of life they couldn't live as line pilots. they get hooked on that gravy train, not to mention rubbing elbows with big shots all day. They'll do anything to keep that position and stay in the game. That's where we are now. What we need is MEC officer term limits!
