As far as this subject, it's a C-11 matter. I'm not C-11. The members of C-11 can decide what course of action they want to see their Chair take.
You may be right about that. Right now Insler is doing both Triage on behalf of his protoge' Hamilton, and he's trying to figure out who his friends are at ALPA National.
Hamilton is out of his depth and breadth. If you've never been in prison you won't have any prison tat's. He needs about 25 years on the line to even understand the pilots. Waking up every day at TK, having a coffee regular and do nut on the way to work doesn't do it. You do a 6 hour day, 2 in the briefing room and 4 in the box for 25 years, and there's no way you can relate to the rank and file.
I am in a crash pad in SFO with 18 other people. Has Hamilton done that? Not bragging at all. It's my choice. But how hard has Hamilton ever had to really grind?
