USA320Pilot said:Earlier this week APA made the following public comment:
"While we don’t know the date when the National Mediation Board will make a determination on our single-carrier filing, we expect it to occur within the next several months, and there is always the possibility it will occur sooner rather than later. With this in mind, some of us have been working on the “come as you are” governance project in the likely event that at some point soon, the pilots from the former US Airways will become part of APA and fall under our Constitution and Bylaws."
What is USAPA up to? Why did the PHX Reps vote no on today's resolution below?
VP Steve Bradford called the meeting to order at 9:05. A motion to go into closed session was moved/seconded by Stein/Dugstad andpassed 8-2 (Yes - CLT Frear, Nelson, DCA, PHL, PHX Braid; No - PHX Scherff, Simmons; Absent- Borman).
At approximately 12:00, the Board returned to open session and the following motion was moved/seconded by Stein/Music. After about 55 minutes of discussion and deliberation, the motion passed 8 - 3 (Yes - CLT, DCA, PHL; No - PHX).
WHEREAS the BPR is interested in obtaining the best possible seniority integration for all US Airways pilots,
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT the BPR directs that the Merger Committee and their Merger Counsel shall be responsible for the Protocol, Transition and Settlement agreements in consultation with the President and the General Counsel.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT the proposed agreements must be presented to the BPR for their input and final approval prior to presentation to the APA.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT all negotiations with APA regarding the (3) three documents shall occur exclusively between the Merger Committee and Merger Counsel, in coordination with the President and General Counsel.
BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED THAT any tentative agreement(s) obtained between the APA and USAPA are subject to final approval by the BPR.
Why did APA tell its pilots that "in the likely event that at some point soon, the pilots from the former US Airways will become part of APA and fall under our Constitution and Bylaws"?
Inquiring minds want to know...
