I agree. I personally have flown with a few people who got booted the moment they started questioning the motive behind the board. At least on APC one can express his opinion freely.

There is barely any good info there anymore. I think it is getting slowly abandoned. I myself try to not post there for the lack of good discussion. You end up having a fruitless conversation with the same person, under several different screen names. Even worse than that, everything is hijacked into a political direction. I guess spiritboard was destined to this faith the moment it was created with the anti MEC agenda that is popular among a minority. I don't see anything wrong trying to form an anti MEC opinion (although I am pro current MEC) as long you let the pro MEC folks speak their mind as well. A good discussion, arguing over issues etc in theory helps understanding the problem and should lead to a better solution. On the other hand the timing for a board like that couldn't be worse. Division of any kind is the last thing this pilot group needs right now.

On a different topic:
I guess no vacancies posted for June. That is the ultimate death sentence for the rest of us on the street. June being the highest traffic month in a year, and with next to no attrition, we can forget about a recall until Spring.
