I’m not here to celebrate the win. I think the pilot group won getting someone who’s been a line pilot for the last 15 plus years as the new MC. The only other candidate our LEC (171) told us about was another ALPA full time guy who worked under Insler. If Rick had won I’d like to think I would have at least had the decency to not trash him before he’s done anything more than sending out a letter giving our pilot group his direction.
I personally find it sad that we just had arguably the worst MC in UAL history (this was Todd’s TA as well all know since we were told 95% was done under his watch with his NC) that was voted down by a historic 94% no vote, and yet when the MEC goes in a different direction and gets a hardcore loudmouth unionist, their are people up in arms as wells. 94% voted for a change. Reps were recalled because we wanted change. We get change and what happens? The vocal minority slams him before he has 24 hrs in office. And then people wonder why UAL never gets anyone elected as ALPA National President. Things that make you go hmmmm…….
Ok
But remember we have 15000 pilots and the choice was them two
Sad
