Default PayPal link to support Amerijet!!!

The support from pilots across the country has been tremendous. Management is expecting these poor guys to cave in when they don't get paychecks tomorrow. They are tougher than that; but $100 bucks a week strike pay won't go far.

A PayPal account has been set up for contributions. ALL the money will go to the crewmembers. Please add your support in any way you can. 60 pilots and flight engineers are standing up to management for all of us.

Any amount would really be appreciated. And it will make it clear to a ****ant management that regardless of the size of the carrier, pilots stand together.

To contribute, go to www.teamsters-local769.com and scroll down to the link.

Wow what an easy way to support you guys/gals. I've received numerous emails and was getting ready to send a check in the mail but I'm glad I stopped here first. It's not much but I do know if everyone on here sent the fifty bucks just as I did, they're going to get further down the road than without it. And you never know when you're airline is going to be out there or another brother/sister.

Hang in there and if it's allowed post on here what you need at the front line. Is there enough bottled water, snacks, etc? If you're in that hot sun maybe should send hats, sun screen, or the like? Don't forget to get plate numbers on the cars of the scabs. That information goes a loooooong way down the road.

Done also.


This group is small, but brave, and it an opportunity for pilots from all airlines to show support and solidarity.

Default Keep up the good work!!

I've been asked by some of the Amerijet guys to express their deepest thanks for the support from everyone. The contributions will go so far for them; they only get $100 a week in strike benefits. Some have been sleeping in their cars at the picket line to save money. All are 100% dedicated.

This weekend will be critical. Paychecks won't come today. Management is convinced these guys will cave. Any donation you give will be matched by the union and will go to these guys, no "admin fees." www.teamsters-local769.com

If you happen through MIA this weekend and have time, stop by. Carry a sign. Just say hello. On Labor Day weekend, of all times, it will mean so much.

And if you want to call Amerijet and express your outrage, or send them an email telling them it's time to get back to the table?
