1) Local 1108 Executive Board makes change to Union message board rules... Last week the Executive Board decided to extend message board posting privileges only to Members in Good Standing (MIGS). The Board decided to take this issue under consideration after members of the Board received numerous phone calls from Members, who were overwhelmingly of the opinion that the privilege of posting and sharing opinions on the Union’s message board should only be extended to those pilots who have supported their Union financially. After discussing the issue, the Executive Board voted unanimously last Tuesday to extend message board posting privileges only to MIGS and furloughed pilots who were MIGS at the time of their furlough. Beginning today non-M.I.G.S. will have read only access. Said 1108 President Mat Slinghoff, “I don’t think its appropriate, as we enter the final stages of this collective bargaining process, to accommodate those pilots who have chosen to free-ride on the backs of every Member in Good Standing with our Union. This action was taken because our members demanded it and I was proud to vote in favor.”
