"In the next coming weeks, we can expect the company to put more and more pressure on each and every one of us. They will be looking for the weak links in our union and testing our resolve. It is important that we fly the contract, provide good service, continue to act professionally as pilots, and not fall victim to the taunts and plots of this management.

One thing is for sure, we will settle for nothing less than a fair contract that recognizes and rewards our contributions to this airline. The only true question is how long it will take the company to realize this fact. Please contact a member of your MEC if you have any questions about the process and what you can expect in the days ahead."

Fly safe and fly the contract
