Went down to Miami Local 769 to show support, it was great to see the guys fired up. AJT has just been staggered by the IBT. Good luck to you scabs working for the scumbags, you are going to need it. The IBT did their homework. I will toast make a toast to all the people screwed by this company in the last twenty years, they get what they deserve. My most gracious thank you to the young guys at this airline. Keep up the good work.

Just curious, are there any official scabs flying at Amerijet right now? Are the pilots expected not to show up for work, how does it work?

They're on strike, right? If you are on strike, and you show up for work, then.......oh nevermind.

Exclamation

August 27, 2009, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters and Teamsters Local Union No. 769 has called a legal strike against Amerijet International.

AJT guys need our support please help hold the line!!!

AMERIJET INTERNATIONAL
6185 NW 18 ST BLG 716-B

Amerijet is located by the atc tower, if you get lost ask for cargocity.

Please if you are in south florida make some time and drop by, lets support our brothers at amerijet in their fight. Is our duty as proffesional pilots to protect our industry from this kind of management, we're all in this together your presence will be greatly appreciated by our brothers at amerijet.

I would hope the IBT has reached out to other pilot unions like ALPA, APA SWAPA as ultimately another Pilot group's Success or Failure affects us all.
There has been very little Union Communication on this other than you guys were released and went on strike yesterday.

APC, in my opinion, is not where Pilots should be hearing of a Pilot Strike.

That being said, I am behind AmeriJet Pilots efforts to negotiate a fair an equitable contract. Godspeed to all of you! You certainly have my support.
