TC, GC. How many divisions do they have?
That is just the issue. We don't know officially because nothing is being communicated through the forum or the webpage.
I feel this is the core of the problem. The F16 class as a whole may well agree with everything the GC does (even when I don't) but the GC needs to argue their case to us all here on the forum/webpage and allow the membership to exercize its rights of oversight. Currently that is not done (whatever the reason for that are)
More importantly the GC would be wise to seek and acquire majority support for their idea's and projects before initiating and implementing them. That saves us all alot of emotional arguing when members find out "after the deal is done" that they are not in agreement. That is the F16 tradition.
Also I can't agree more with what Rolf has written down so effectively. I too have been more vocal in private about leaving the class altogether. I finding that I'm unwilling to cover for the GC in private mails and discussions anymore. I too have grown dessillusioned with the preceived drive towards an old-school class structure much like the F18's and A's as well as lack of GC responsiveness. I'm sorry but that is just the way things are at my place. Piss off a few more ambassadors like that and the F16 class is in for a real adventure.
