How can it not be clear?
DPA supporters have been begged to get involved in the process. Mostly they have refused this invitation. Rather than to participate, some have followed their leadership into representational irrelevance followed by criticism and outrage that the process they refused has failed to consider their opinion.
Clearly, one can not have it both ways. If you have an idea how we as a pilot group and association can function while actively undermining our representatives I am all ears. My opinion is that shooting your rep in the back weakens his back bone.
How does after the fact criticism (which is mostly untrue) help us? How does waiting and hoping the ship sinks help the passengers?
If you want to mutiny, please just do it already. I support your legal right to a vote. This has now drug on for four plus years. Otherwise if you don't like the direction we are sailing in there is plenty of opportunities on the bridge and in the engine room.
