Seems odd that there is no provision requiring ALPA National officers to be members of an ALPA-affiliated seniority list (and yes, the LOA category would suffice b/c if your term ended or you got recalled from office, you still have a pilot position to return to). Retire and you should be done at National effective the same day as your retirement. This seems like common-sense...guess not.
And, if this story is in fact true, I hope some 2nd grader at Herndon Elementary fingerpaints his portrait for "The President's Wall." 😁
