Exclamation It's Official!

I was perusing the Colgan ALPA site tonight and found this:

Dear Colgan Pilot:
Congratulations! Your efforts to secure a National Mediation Board (NMB) representation election were successful—a strong majority of Colgan pilots returned authorization cards, so today ALPA petitioned the NMB to conduct a representation election.


So, sounds like we'll find out how things are going to play out within the next 90 days.

Good job! Now the fight's not over yet. You've got now vote to get ALPA on the property. You've just authorized an election. Keep up the good work!

CJC guys,

I got a call from our MEC Chairman today, regarding your great news. I guess there will be several organizing events over the coming months. He specifically asked myself and another rep to help out. We're both former CJC. Although I'll be stepping down from my Rep position, expect to see me out there. Best of luck to you guys. XJT is fighting hard for you!!

Seriously, you got some great folks running ALPA at XJT with Bill D and Eric S. GREAT guys. We could REALLY REALLY REALLY use your help with these organizing events. It would be great for our pilots to hear about guys who were at Colgan then left to an ALPA carrier. I will keep you updated.




PS-When you speak to Eric again ask him about the OC event we had in PIT
