Default LEC 77 vote

Only 1 fo is running for lec rep out of dfw/las.

Seriously! 1 of the 6 (or is it 8?) votes for things like our integrated seniority list, jcba and whatever else happens this summer.

None of the complainers on here want to run!?!

Apathy is contagious.


Taking a step back I’ll say this. Besides the one email we got from the MEC Chair last week, why has there been complete silence from the MEC during this 2 week meltdown? Seriously nothing from them?!

On a related note to why we lose so many volunteers, ol SM is at it again. Going after SV in an instructor chat. Because SV had the “nerve” to voice disappointment with the MEC involvement right now as it relates to communication with the pilots during these meltdowns. SM is the guy we have running out NC and this guy once again shows how if anyone speaks up, he will attack them.

So in review: 1 pilot out of 400 will run for FO rep. The NC Chairman still controls the MEC ANR anyone who speaks out is attacked and our current MEC is as quiet as they can be while we have pilots being rescheduled and rerouted daily with no communication from the company or the union.

Maybe with one of these mergers we can clean house

There has to be something we can do as a pilot group to get people out of positions they either don’t belong in or are abusing.

You can recall elected officers. Committee chairmen are elected by the reps we send in. Since I’ve been here there have been a few coups by the LEC members to oust the sitting “regime”. So it starts and ends with our elected LEC members, basically the 6 of them. Which is why when we get 1 person running for one of the 6, it’s disheartening.

Probably only one FO ran because everyone else is planning on getting out of here in the near future.

This, these constant meltdowns won’t help retention.

I would be willing to bet that there are some who are close to being off probation that would have run.

Our pilot group is the most apathetic group of all the majors. Council 18 did a meeting a few months back and had ZERO pilots show up for it. Not at all surprised to see only 1 person run for 77.
