Nope!

He was NOT voted in, he was appointed as vice president by the president of the mec himself. Then he traded positions with the president. Then shortly after that he fired the vice president through a recall that union members were not even allowed to vote on, and appointed another vp......Messed up.

Nobody wants the union president to fly 90 hours a month! For starters, it would be nice if he was actually qualified on the 900, which is what his payrate is. He is our highest paid pilot and has never once actually flown a 900 and has not flown a 200 in YEARS.

So with all this free time, wouldn't you expect some progress? Wouldn't you expect a game plan? Wouldn't you atleast expect him to come to base ops and be there for a q and a session?

That's really not asking alot. There needs to be a change. Senior APD's have already asked for his resignation shortly after TA 1 failed miserably. He rejected their request and refused to resign. Because he led the union to a failed TA it was no suprise that people requested a resignation.

Until something changes, 9E's 11 year old contract will continue to lower the industry standard from all aspects
