Default FDR-CVR monitoriing for disciplinary actions

Here is a corrected link to the Action Center:

Legislative Action Center

It takes 30 seconds.

I did it last night using the email from ALPA. Very quick and easy, hopefully effective.

No kidding guys, this is VERY IMPORTANT. ALPA couldn't have made it any easier, click on a few links, then click on send. It literally takes ONE MINUTE. Take the time to do it.

DO IT NOW!

Actually to takes 2 minutes with a crappy hotel wireless but very easy, and very much worth the effort, IMHO.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but last I knew as a career USAF guy, the military respects CVR data much the same as air carriers have traditionally done. If I am correct, I think the ex-military flyers in our ranks need to play the military veteran card here. Everyone else is unashamed to play their endangered-special-interest-tree/frog lover-card, why shouldn’t we?

If the SC senator thinks this CVR bill is such a great idea, is he willing to write it into the next Defense Authorization Bill? Let him suggest such "professionalism" is also needed by military flyers, and see how many co-signers he gets with that.

Whatever, it’s super easy to do the ALPA link to your senator as a minimum – so please support ALPA on this! It’s also easy to add some of your own text to the standard form letter. I, for example, pointed out to B. Corker, and L. Alexander, that in my opinion as an ex-military career flyer, and licensed pilot of 38 years, this would set aviation safety back about 50 years.

I do not believe many of these senators care if they inadvertly set aviation safety back 50 years if it looks like they are doing something right now, anything looks better than doing nothing.

I'm fine with it as long as we're able to put CVR's in their (Pres, senator's, rep's) offices and open channel on their blackberry's.

It takes seconds to send the letter. Just do it!

Sidebar: Do you really want to hear what Nancy Pelosi says in private? It would scare most of us to death.

This is worth it; easier than Ebay and you don't need a credit card.
