His main problem was how vague the letter was. There was no real purpose to it other than to make fact-less statements. It was filled with empty promises. He sited several similar letters where each had a tangible goal in what they were trying to accomplish and how they would try and move forward, most recently a very similarly worded document drafted by the FFDC from August 2013. He also stated we are not against a unified approach to better regional pilots however making vague promises without stating concrete goals is useless and a failure to those pilots the MEC represents.
That is a complete cop-out.

No one can state concrete goals in the highly dynamic situation in which we find ourselves and revealing specific tactics would be akin to the coach handing his play book and game plan to the opposing team's coach the night before.

Very weak.
