US Airways ALPA MEC code-a-phone update #2 - June 13, 2006
This is Arnie Gentile with a second US Airways MEC update for Tuesday, June 13th, with two new items.
Item 1. Today, MEC Chairman Jack Stephan signed a Letter of Agreement with America West MEC Chairman JR Baker regarding the fair and equitable distribution of growth flying for the three B-757 aircraft recently added to the US Airways fleet.
While this had the potential to be a divisive issue, both the US Airways and America West MECs worked together to hammer out a deal that would secure current 757 positions for US Airways pilots and makes arrangements for America West pilots to capture seven Captain slots and seven First Officer slots after the merger and pursuant to the terms of the combined contract and the merged seniority list. The LOA is posted on the pilots only website under What's New.
The US Airways and America West MECs continue to work towards an agreement for the new EMB-190 flying and through their joint efforts, they are sending a message to management that our pilot groups recognize the importance of solidarity.
Best regards,
