If there's one thing Moak said he would do and get done faster than the previous guys, who took 10 years to have a test in Baltimore, then KCM is something I use everyday and consider a job well done.
I understand that's the ALPA talking point, but it happens to be false. ALPA had a role later in the game and that has to be acknowledged. But to ignore the hard work done by IPA and CAPA, then claim all the credit for yourself is typical of ALPA's dishonorable methods.
