A quick back of the envelope.
There are 4800 members. Let's say half are family, half single. 1440+2880= 4320/2 = 2160*4800=
10,368,000 in annual dues.
Okay those numbers could be plus or minus a couple of million.
No one is suggesting there is anything untoward going on BUT it is essential that complete and full transparency in annual accounts was sent to every member with that increase notice.
Further - not sure how long that lease is on Fairmont - but wouldn't the best location be that which is located closest to the main concentration of pilots - i.e. Meydan/DSO..not to mention price
C'mon APC, if you are going to ask for a 20% increase - you need to attach a detailed financial explanation & do a better job of explaining how this all works in a way that serves us - the members.
And no - attending the AGM won't do.
