You never would've lived down that sentence had you made a typo.

OK, am I missing something (entirely possible!) here? Scope appears to only protect us in case of acquisition of or by another 'U.S. certificated airline or U.S. certificated air cargo operation'. What happens if FedEx purchases a foreign carrier?

Short answer here on foreign carriers and our scope. Go to a roadshow and ask the question, or call your MEC rep, or call one of the officers, or call your SPC Chair or Vice-Chair and they can explain it for you.

But aren't you our SPC Chair?

He's not up for re-election anytime soon..............

I believe it's explained in Section 1, page 7 of the TA "phonebook" you should have received yesterday.

Then give me a call

It is much easier to explain in person vice on a message board.

PM me your Phone #..........
