Just so everyone has it

Fellow Comair Pilots,

It is with utter disgust at Comair Management that I write to you today. After five hours of meetings today the company is not interested in any real Furlough Mitigation other than flex line value. Many of your ALPA representatives had high hopes for today's meeting but the company wanted to waste time just as they have taken their time in rectifying your pay. Tonight a VARS message will be coming out which will detail this meeting in greater detail.

In regards to the Paycheck error that Comair Management has caused the company is attempting to rectify the situation in the following incorrect way.

Anyone who had greater than $400.00 removed from their check will receive 2/3 back in a live check if your furlough date is 11/05. If your furlough Date is 10/05 no money will be refunded. The reaming crew outfitters balances will be removed from the next two checks.

At 5:00 pm today all checks that the company re-ran have been delivered to the CVG Chief Pilots Office. You may pick up your check their or have it mailed to your address of record. For those of you who are JFK based ask CVG to send it to JFK if you wish.

In no way does your ALPA representation believe that the company has any rights to any of these funds. We will continue to explore all legal means and other remedies in which we can for you to receive not only your full pay but in addition any damages which may have occurred due to this GROSS NEGLIGENCE by the company.

During this process I need each and everyone of you to keep records of any and all damages caused by Comair's mispayment to all Furloughees 10/5 & 11/05 and keep this information until requested. In addition if you feel you have been stripped of pay you deserve please take the steps to contact the Kentucky Labor Cabinet.

Together we will fight this mistreatment until all pilots receive their full pay!

In Solidarity,
