American Pilot Vote

It's probably a combination of the claim, lack of willingness to fight, being worn down, fear of uncertainty, etc. many folks I've talked to view this TA as insurance going into a merger rather than the uncertainty of an 1113 or worse. IMHO, merger won't happen until we exit anyway. Stay tuned, we should know by 2pm central tomorrow.

Good luck to you fellas. I'm a US Airways guy and I fly your cohorts on the shuttle all the time. Great group of pilots. We have alot to learn from you all about unity. Hopefully the merger will happen and we'll conquer together.

This is APA President Keith Wilson with the APA Information Hotline for Friday, Dec. 7.

TENTATIVE AGREEMENT VOTE RESULTS: By a vote of 5,489 for and 1,951 against, the APA membership has voted to ratify the tentative agreement. More than 96 percent of eligible members participated in the ratification by casting a vote. Voting ended at noon Central today and BallotPoint t
...
hen tabulated the results shortly thereafter. APA Secretary-Treasurer First Officer Scott Shankland has certified the results as accurate.

I want to thank everyone who took the time to cast a vote in this important ratification process. I also want to thank the APA Board of Directors and our many volunteers for their efforts throughout the past year since American Airlines entered Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

APA will now turn its focus to helping to ensure that full consideration is given to strategic alternatives before American Airlines’ restructuring concludes. The APA leadership continues to support a merger with US Airways as the best path to a stronger, more competitive American Airlines that will in turn enhance our pilots’ long-term career prospects.

That's it for now. Thanks for checking this hotline.
