Nothing on the news or ALPA, hopefully later. Glad to see it went well, hopefully we'll see some results. Almost 3 years is ridiculous for a regional contract.

More picketing, this time at Dulles. Everybody show up if you can!

Fellow Pilots,

The TSA pilot group will be conducting informational picketing November 25th between noon and 3pm at Washington
Dulles Airport (IAD). Pilots should report in full uniform (per company uniform standards) at ALPA Headquarters
at 11am for a briefing. Pilots residing in the Richmond, VA area may take a shuttle van provided by the TSA MEC.
The shuttle van will depart for IAD 7:30am sharp! Richmond pilots wanting to carpool should RSVP with Rob (PM for #) and report to the back of the Richmond Employee Parking Lot by 7:30am. The shuttle
van will also return the same evening when picketing has concluded. See you there!

- TSA MEC

Just saw the alpa tv bit on TSA. What's up with the turnout on the Dulles picket. Pretty sad, especially since no one from the public seemed to even care.

I'm not really sure how many people we have based in Dulles right now. I get the feeling that it's not very many and that may account for the turnout issues but who knows. There's that plus the fact that we don't have that many pilots to begin with and the ones we do have were probably busy flying for the most part. How many did show up to picket anyway?

It said 15. Just seems kind of a low turnout for a major hub, especially since there are other ALPA pilots that might be around IAD.
