Raw news from LAA AGM
Please note this is unconfirmed.
--------------------------------------
Most of the noise was from her supporters. Only about seven of us in the room voted against her (about 110 in the room). We were not popular!
-------------/////////--/
"The room was overwhelmingly on her side and the board biased the speaking time to her benefit but it still wasn't enough.
------------------------------------
From another member
"The LAA have printed out two sheets as handouts. Four lines explain Barry Tempest's proposal thus "I wish to propose a motion for the AGM. It concerns the recent award of the Bill Woodhams trophy to Tracey Curtis-Taylor in respect of flights from South Africa and to Australia. In my considered opinion the award of this trophy by the LAA has brought our organisation into disrepute. I urge the Assossiation to reconsider its decision and to rescind the award."
They then devote the rest of the A4 page to her recent statement "A small number of recent articles... " with a second sheet of A4 given over to Ewald's statement.
To any members not familiar with the whole saga they've only given her story."
Bottom line is
She lost!
123 to 65 votes.
