Please post an immediate summation of said interrogatory on the ALPA side or email; no more Whiskey Delta excuses. (Tony C, Albie, Micro et al.) Not everyone is physically able to attend, and in this electronic age-pardon, that is giving too much license to this group of union leaders-telegraphic age, no excuse to give a timely after action report or post-mortem for this critical leadership position.
I can't get on the ALPA website to reference an e-mail on who the candidates are and I don't have the candidates permission to post their names here but I'll PM them to you. I won't give you a WD excuse but I'm not seated yet,have no vote, and am not yet able to send e-mails with the union. As the meeting is in open session I would hope the union puts out some details (one of my major problems with how things have been run). I know some of the applicants and others I don't. If you know one of these guys and think they would do a great job, WRITE OR CALL YOU REP AND TELL HIM SO. Call me personally (my cells in VIPS) and I'll tell you how I saw things went. I won't sugercoat it.
