Item 3. April 19, 2011 Special MEC Meeting Summary: The MEC met for a Special MEC Meeting on Tuesday April 19th in order to discuss a number of subjects of interest to C44 pilots.

• A recent National Mediation Board decision classifying Republic Air Holdings as a Single Transportation System, for the purposes of representation, does not in and of itself affect scope compliance; however questions have arisen regarding the meaning of air carrier as it relates to US code and our PWA. At the direction of the MEC, in order to ensure scope compliance, ALPA legal counsel and the MEC will review the various issues involved related to the legal definition of an “air carrier” at the regular scheduled MEC meeting in May. Scope is a fundamental cornerstone of our contract and this issue will be reviewed exhaustively.
