As far as I know, only one batch has gone out so far. I have a buddy who got one with 40 hours of lookback.
Every letter I've seen has the same date on it. "Sent from ATL" but post marked from SLC and held shut with tape lol

Here here!!!!
Still amazes me that someone can wakeup one day, break with the ranks and go to management job, and then send out trash like this. Probably wasn’t the named person’s idea but at the same time, pretty Benedict Arnold kinda stuff. Are they even really allowed fully back into the union ranks as a line pilot later, or once you’re in the management bed there you stay?

He’s the perfect example of what you get when you rely on small town Georgia cronyism to run a Fortune 100 corporation.

Even they are wrong and we hate them, the GFB and letters are very effective for mgmt. They definitely make a lot of pilots think twice about calling in sick above the 50 hr GFB trigger even if they are sick. The letters will probably be even more effective for mgmt. As a pilot, I say ignore them and if you are sick do NOT fly.

Getting a letter like this in the mail is just a trophy. It’s also a source of entertainment for my UA and AA friends, who have never seen anything like this.
