Alaska MEC War?
Just out:
*****************************
Today’s Special MEC Meeting began at 1 p.m. this afternoon and concluded at 7 p.m. this evening. After a discussion that lasted several hours over the sole agenda item of the disposition of the MEC Chairman, a motion was introduced for the recall of the chairman. That motion was eventually tabled by a split vote, and the meeting was then adjourned.
A more detailed account of the meeting will be provided to you shortly.
****************************
Anyone have any info? I'm guessing the troops don't like the hostel takeover of the union by the SEA MEC.
Baja.

Why on earth would you post this? It is internal business and not the concern of any people on the outside. It does not effect them and they have no influence on it. We have internal boards if you have questions or input.

I believe it does concern others on this board. The marching orders are coming from National. We are the test monkeys for this. National wants to restructure the way they do business. This includes things at the MEC/LEC level. We are the smallest of the big airlines. Try it on us first and see what needs to be tweaked.

Read the Weighing In article by Paul Rice in the the last ALPA mag. Half way through he all but spells it out for you. The majority of pilots here were not in favor of block rep. either. It didn't go out to vote and SEA had to do 4 roll call votes. That hardly sounds like the majority wanted it. It sounds as if someone said make this happen. If they don't like it then shove it down their throats. But what do I know I'm only a 10 year FO in a small base.

BTW - An ALPA memo isn't internal mail, neither is a mass email from VP of flt ops or the pres...ease up.
