Let the entire pilot group vote and the game changes entirely. We’d be more likely to see a wider selection of quality candidates.
Ancman I think your beef is less with the way MEC Chair gets elected and more the unilateral authority they have to settle grievances and how this most recent case went down. In my view making the MEC Chair an even bigger popularity contest solves nothing, and if anything it could invigorate the winner to believe the merit of reaching such status entitles them to make decisions against the will of the MEC. I'd be more interested in further limiting their power rather than giving them justification to consolidate more of it.
