Three, those who feel that the pairing meets the hard parameters in the contract and ask why is a pairing disputed in the first place. Creating a DP flyer circular is a great idea and will take considerable work on someones part to keep it accurate with drops, trades, etc. The flip side is once these names are on the marquee, what little inhibition these people have to pickup DPs will evaporate, because then what difference does it make.
My thought on the flyer would that it be put out the month after the trip is flown. That way accuracy can be assured. I don't think it will stop the flying, but there will be enough guys that don't want their names in lights OR it will force some conveniently ignorant folks to get educated.
