I thought we paid for an association with elected volunteers to represent us, but every time someone complains about the AOA and/or the performance of the GC, they are told to get themselves elected. This, of course, makes no sense.
Criticism of the association's performance, waste of funds, ineffective yet expensive personnel, years-long battles with no end in sight and/or no prioritization, and the ongoing lack of significant results is just that. It comes with the territory, particularly when it is accurate and justified. People are allowed to express their opinions on pilot rumour forums.
Every time someone complains about a judge or minister or president, does that mean the complainer has no right to speak unless he is actively attempting to replace that person?
