It wasn't a few members of the Long Haul Council that resigned, it was all of them! Wasn't it something along the lines of the reps said to CD "Do not under any circumstances sign this agreement" and CD came back and said "Oops, I signed the agreement". Whats the point in having a GS if he goes against the clearly stated instructions of the people he is supposed to represent? How would you like it in your airline if you sent CD to the board saying "Do not do x,y,z" and he came right back saying "Ooops, just signed all your rights away!"?
