The recall did not happen. I love how an email is expected immediately. Meeting ended, rushed to airport, and got on a plane. If it makes you feel better MEM was working on it during the flight back from DC but seeing as I am walking into the door at 10pm it should be out at some point tomorrow. Expect to have an email from the entire MEC sometime this weekend. Tomorrow the MEC officers from pinnacle, colgan, and Mesaba have a meeting with Corp to find out what the company's plan actually is. After that's done the MEC will discuss it all and get a communication out to the entire pilot group. Instantaneous is great but every email gets put through all 3 LEC guys for an edit. MEM has had 2 updates so far this week, not sure about the other bases.

Higney man, chill. Never said I expected anything, was just wondering if something had come out in other bases. The last line from the DTW update last night...

"We will send out another update tomorrow when the meeting concludes."

Since the email had not been sent out I was just curious if the meeting was going on late into the night with the topics at hand. Didn't mean to offend anyone, and I'm not hopping onto the anti-union bandwagon that has started to grow as of late.

I think the volume has grown but it's a relatively small group of people and those that they can influence.

Wrong.

The union would not get sued for advising pilots to fly the book.
Wrong.
