(I do think there has been a sea change at the MEC level with all the new reps being elected, here's to supporting their efforts.)
Hey don't shoot the messenger! I just report. You decide.

BTW, I agree with you and hope that DALPA changes it's current (well, hopefully not current now but definitely at least recent past) practice of labeling anyone who disagrees as "a few malcontents." To get even 1500 pilots who are so disenfranchised with ALPA that they would want to start all over with completely new representation is very significant and speaks volumes, IMO. I hope this, at the very least, has been a "wakeup call."
