Oh well. Those "folks in Herndon" include the E&FA analysts that we use at the table, an ERISA attorney, and a Membership Dept to ensure pilots eligible to vote get the chance to - including the group that became Active members during the balloting window

Why can't all those things just happen in the ether? Why should be have to pay other union workers with no split loyalties to do those things for us?

Looks like we'll be getting another dues refund. Waiting for the griping about that, too.
I am not complaining about paying dues on the 18%. That's a given. I believe paying dues on DC excess is not right. If you still had room in your 401k, would you pay dues on it then? It just doesn't seem right to charge dues in one situation but not the other with regards to DC excess.

I've been kinda busy this week. I'll try and remember to call Dalpa on Monday and try and get a definitive answer.
