Dave, Thanks,
But I'd already marked you down already as having responded.
At tonight's count there have been 12 responses thus:
5 folk [inc. you] who probably won't wish to join a web strut as they've already got one to go to.
7 who would join [inc. me & Steve].
There are a lot who must have seen the thread & voted which encouraged Steve to do the groundwork. I really only got involved as a supporter of the idea & to let him see he wasn't a lone soldier.
Well 7 ain't bad, but maybe a bit thin still ?

Based on 25 'yes' votes Steve kindly prepared the ground for acceptance by the EC of a Web based Strut.
I am really concerned that of LAA 8,000 members so far only 6 have actually said they'd join a Web Strut.
With the massive change envisaged of a forthcoming BMAA/LAA vote at an EGM 'by a show of hands by a simple majority' and with the quorum being at the Chairman's say so, a Web Strut is one good way to discuss matters and instruct the Committee via our representative.
A normal Strut needs 10 members.
Rule 13c. PFA Struts
Struts are semi-autonomous organisations which are affiliated to the Association for the purpose of supporting and furthering the objectives of the Association, advising the committee through the council, and providing a focus socially and for mutual support and exchange of information for members in a specific local area. They are to conduct themselves in accordance with strut regulations issued by the committee.
A strut shall consist of not less than ten members. Full strut members shall be members of the Association and shall elect one member to be the strut co-ordinator who will be responsible for all correspondence with the Association and for general enquiries, and one member, who may also be the strut co-ordinator to be the strut representative on the council. A Strut may admit its own associate members who are not members of the Association. QED.

Mike, my last PM from you is dated 22nd April. I contacted Penny last week and withdrew the web strut application from the June EC meeting because no coordinator could be found. I'm afraid no coordinator = no strut.
Disappointed for our remote members yes, down hearted no as I think Peter our new CEO has some good ideas brewing for better utilisation of web resources.

Steve,
I concur with your action.
Should the ones who genuinely wish for a web strut be, in due course, supplemented by additional "would be-er's" I am willing to offer to co-ordinate.
BTW I just searched through my LAA provided web messages files But no trace. I shouldn't have been too clever and won't risk it again for PM's to you especially.
