BB hasn't done anything to effect me negatively. From what I've heard he's a top notch pilot advocate and you wouldn't want anybody else as your rep if you have to do a carpet dance. He has my full support now he's elected. It's just my opinion that 44 needs to go with more reasonable FO reps don't have to be in lockstep with the Capt reps but at least on the same page.
What percentage of C44 pilots do you think would have preferred Malone over Bartells? Was is so overwhelming that their vote for MEC Chairman was egregious?
Like was it 100% of ATL based pilots wanted Malone as Chairman?
