The "letter"

After he left office the Union got the bill for all the "flight loss pay" that his administration ran up. It's like saying our finances are fine, even though you haven't received the Visa bill from christmas yet.
This guy is a political spin machine. Sounds like he wants his old job back, his last attempt didn't work (he was supposedly behind the recall of the reps)

Hmmmm....... I'm curious as to why the current MEC waited 2 yrs to put out a letter bashing the former MEC? Could it be that they're preparing us for another assessment?, especially given how they validated the last one! Just food for thought..........

The current Chair/Vice Chair were members of the MEC even before that time frame(2yrs). The other two members(CVG) have been there since Oct '07. Here are some other Q's: With regards to flt pay loss, was there money already set aside for this contingency, or did this put us in the red? Could the fact that the MEC(current) were not able to receive grants, but only loans that had to be paid back be an issue here? And finally, our budget for '09, was reduced by almost 50%. Could these be the reasons behind our Chairman's letter?
I encourage all pilots to ask questions of this MEC. If your not convinced, call national, I did...............
