Dick,
Won't this look a little suspicious when you become the Director of the new Airspace Directorate after the election (proxied by a certain current ASA board member of course)? Assuming calamity John's party is returned.
Perhaps, considering your rumoured arrangement to dismiss the ASA board, it would be best if you kept a somewhat lower profile?
If that is at all possible!
Of course - it is all rumour - I may be waaay off the mark.
