The C20 reps ( I wonder who they were) were the first to argue in favor of CDOs by introducing a C20 resolution asking that the contract be modified to bring back "illegals." The C20 reps argued that they were very popular with senior pilots. But for the actions of other representatives we would have had CDOs years ago.

Now I'm not saying that the C20 resolution asking for CDOs, which was championed by the C20 reps, was the genesis of CDOs in the FAR117 TA, not at all. What I am saying is that there was pilot input in favor of CDOs.

There has also been pilot input against CDOs in the form of emails to reps.

There are also a significant number of pilots who have expressed a desire for CDOs.

With all these conflicting data points, what's wrong with asking a straight forward question in a scientific survey?
