There were approx 2:1 HG pilots voting NO by wing type.

There were approx 2:1 PG pilots voting YES by wing type.

The pilots who flew both wings voted NO by a good margin.

The issue which is proved by this chart is PG pilots carried this vote to passing.

This also proves there is a seperation of sports in this org based on wing type.

Clearly HG has lost its direction and influence in USHPA.

There is no incentive for an USHPA to pour time and resources into a sport HG
that in their view is dying. The majority of members do not care…
They are not HG pilots…

Simple truth only a fool would pretend does not matter.

The BOD knows all this, it's the members who deny it… They did not vote..
Clearly half of those members who did not vote are HG pilots..

That is where the most blame is to found for this loss.

I can't blame the PG pilots for this or even the BOD.

Nope, this major remodel of USHPA is because of the HG pilots..
Failure to engage and vote. I would feel better about this outcome
if my peers voted for it. Wonder if I was wrong?

This is worse then losing, it's giving up…

This sport exists because of the efforts and sacrifices of so many people.
You ponder these moments when your peers let you down.

67% of the members don't care about voting or this chart..

On the 75th anniversary of D-Day we are scolding our peers for not voting..

Rare are those who value righteousness above popularity.
