Got it.



Nobody says anybody has to use the "template" letter. Feel free to modify/customize/edit as you see fit. Just don't sit back and do nothing and then accuse ALPA of doing nothing.


If IPA wins, the FAA will likely go back to the drawing board to write Flight and Duty Time Restrictions and Rest Requirements, and they may or may not look like the current FAR 117. Knowing that cargo pilots would be included, it's possible that the new rule would be a watered-down version. Be careful what you ask for.

If ALPA wins, the carve-out will be removed, and all of FAR 117 will apply to all of us, just like it's written now.

If only one of the strategies succeeds, I hope it's the ALPA strategy.
