Of course it reeks of money. Following Rubio's logic we should have the preclearance facility in Saudi Arabia or Pakistan (both with direct service to the US.)

This is about foreign governments greasing the wheels for their state-owned airlines, and the blatant corruption of our politcians.

Emb145: if ALPA is against clubbing baby seals, does that mean you're for it? :(

T,

If you would, please repost Rubio's response to you here for the benefit of the people who don't read the L&G thread. It deserves a wider audience.

Timbo did in fact receive the same response. I didn't read his, but I will bet it is word for word. At least he responded though. I have yet to hear from the snare drum faced Bill Nelson..... I'm sure he will vote right in step with whatever harry reid tells him to, so we got that going for us.

It's gonna take decades to undo the damage this administration is doing....

Seriously???????? But please, don't bother to get informed, just vote emotionally the other way just because you feel you have been wronged. That'll show 'em. A little advice though: Make sure you have your resume updated... the one for any job other than aviation, because this is step one to cabotage, and it's YOUR job on the block.

unbelievable.

It's unbelievable that some morons can't see what a threat this presents.

Heck, my airline doesn't fly international, nor am I ALPA, but I wrote a letter. Waiting for an answer...

Yup. And we all know there are no Muslims there that vow to wage jihad against America, nor is there anyone from the ME that supports it. Interesting that you couldn't counter any of his other points.
