NWA ALPA 2007 LEC Elections -- Candidates

Any pilot willing to do volunteer work on the behalf of the pilot group deserves to be recognized for their contributions. ALPAWatch thanks each of these pilots for coming forward.

Congratulations to our NEW MEC Representatives in SEA and MEM!
New Representatives take office March 2008

Most of these Candidates ran Un-Opposed. That is unacceptable. The next election is MSP, Fall of 2008. If you are based in MSP, please ask yourself if you can run.

Voter turnout was embarrising low. If you voted, good job! If you did not, why not?

3 Candidates (all MEM) answered the ALPAWatch Questionnaire.
