Good post B/B. Do you have any specifics? Time, place, altitude, etc?

Who gets the ding for this? UAV (or was it one of those little battlefield thingys?), ATC, or C130?

It was never about conspiracy for me. I just didn't want to change something that I felt wasn't broke. I suppose if there wasn't an election, others would have been up in arms over that.
The policy manual directs 6 months before Section 6, so either the policy manual needs to be changed or we should get used to this. It seems the MEC went with the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" mentality too. What if there was widespread criticism of some future committee and the MEC wanted to fix it? You might be happy there was an election. The policy manual should be about the process absent any valuation on the current individuals. The process was followed, we had a democratic election, there were no conspiracies, everyone should be happy. That is transparency, publish what you are going to do and then do it.

We must stop air force on air force crime. It's a travesty.

That is a serious perk and I love it. Did Delta have that before the merger?
