This is why I think we need term limits for DALPA. If you want to represent a base you should be flying there. Period. Who cares where you live - we have tons of commuters. Like I said - we have great smart folks who start to serve in DALPA with the best of intentions, and for some reason, some of these folks don't ever want to go back to the line. It appears to be fairly common. As Yoda would say "The pull of FPL is strong and has a dark side."

Or maybe instead of term limits, some kind of backside payoff, to weed out the people who are only there for the FPL. You get paid less WHILE you're in your elected position, but DALPA pays you a slight bump the following year to make up for it. Or some such mechanism to make being a rep slightly undesirable to those who aren't REALLY there to help.

I'd agree with this. Term limits, and must be in base to represent it.

Other than rhetoric, why do you think that? Don't forget that the previous reps were championed by the same people who tried to recall them. Maybe that group of blowhards is the problem.

We need to get started on a contract. They're almost the perfect slate.
Rose & Archer will probably get along really well.
