After receiving the imminent threat above, the America West pilots issued the following update to its pilots below.
They suddenly decided it was a good idea to join USAPA. What a coincidence.
Army of Leonidas recent update;
"We will also be releasing an update very soon that discusses the merits of joining USAPA. In a nutshell, we want to emphasize that we in the West have a unique opportunity to join with a growing number of East pilots who are ready to repudiate the Bradford-Cleary debacle that has been so harmful for all US Airways pilots. The time is now to set aside emotions and work towards a common goal. We will explain our position fully in our Sunday update, but for now consider what we have just said about joining USAPA and paying dues."
