outofsynch,
Simply throwing in the towel and saying ´why don´t you join the CC yourself´ is a very poor argument.
You (as volunteer on the CC?
) should be in touch with the membership and listen to their feedback regarding hot issues.
A frequent complaint is that the CC does not listen very well to what the members want, but rather appears to have it´s own agenda, which is what this thread is about!
The result is that members feel that they are going backwards regarding issues like leave, profit sharing, pay, TRSS, rostering etcetera...
I do admire and appreciate the CC´s work, but I think the CC would make life a lot easier for itself if it would focus more on increasing it´s profile/visibility among the pilotcorps, rather than having ´behind closed doors´ meetings with management.
