I just nominated Cole on my ballot. Cole has stuck his neck out more than once to demand that the budget be published, consistent with ALPA By-laws. He's been personally slandered as a result.
He is still willing to stick his neck out for the sake of transparency that we all deserve as a pilot group. This speaks volumes about his character. It's tangible evidence he cares about us as a pilot group and wants the right thing done.
We need representatives that have been here for the ugly days and know what to expect in 2015 from the company and ALPA.
