A C44 pilot in good standing followed the required procedure of requesting to have an agenda item (introducing motion to recall) to the next C44 council meeting. That's the only requirement per ALPA National and ALPA Constitution and Bylaws. The C44 Chairman told him that the full text of the motion is required and set an arbitrary deadline of today. The actual deadline per ALPA rules is 15 days prior to the meeting. Not sure if that's business days or actual days but a moot point since the meeting isn't until July.
So the C44 Chair is just making **** up as he goes in an effort to save his ass and that of the other reps.
My prediction is that DH the MEC chair sits idly by and does nothing. It might require getting ALPA legal involved to compel Archer to do his effing job per the ALPA rules.
This my friends is emblematic of deep rooted corruption. Time to clean the damn house.
