MONTREAL (AP) -- Air Canada parent Ace Aviation Holdings Inc. is selling a 70 percent stake in its aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul subsidiary for $639 million to a group that includes KKR Private Equity Investors.

The deal, also involving investment firm Sageview Capital LLC, values the entire ACTS LP unit at $912 million.

Ace will retain a 30 percent stake in the business, and said Air Canada will remain its largest customer.

Other ACTS customers include Canada's Defence Department, Air Transat, JetBlue Airways Corp., US Airways Group Inc. and UAL Corp.'s United Airlines. :shock:

I have not seen it posted. Since it was in TODAY'S paper, it's obviously recent news. There have been comments before about the possibility of AA selling off Maintenance.

This is an open forum, so I think I'll post what I please! :p

enough already,

FYI,

As long as the TWU(transport workers union) is in office, representing A/C maintainance workers, where the VAST MAJORITY are located in Tulsa Ok.,AA A/C maint. is as much a "SURE BET" as purchasing PURE GOLD, on the precious metals market !!!

THATS HOW SAFE AA A/C MAINT. IS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bears. Tulsa A&P Mech are not your problem. A high percentage sign cards every time. There are a large number of unlicensed workers in Tulsa that will not sign cards. This problem is not just a Tulsa problem; the other two bases have the same problem along with the line stations system wide including the north east. Also, as I have stated in the past Title II is your real problem that everyone fails to realize.

Your incorrect, Tulsa was and is the main problem for change....within or without the twu. It's not only the unlicensed workers, it's many licensed AMT's also. If you look at the percentages of signed cards vs M@R eligible voters, of all the line stations and the three maintenance bases, Tulsa has the worst numbers by far. This is the reason management caters to sell-outs like Burdchette and the rest of the yes-voting Tulsa twu blind.

While Tulsa title II is a problem, so is Tulsa's title I.
 
Just a brief statement, about the title 1 folks in TUL.

(I don't "voice" this opinion Enough, And I need to do it MORE)

"To the Title 1 TUL/AMT's";

For those of you that HAVE voted for CHANGE, time and again, you are to be commended.

I will go so far as to say, that to vote to rid your base/profession of the INFESTATION that is the Twu, AND to do so, while greatly surrouned by a kool-aid drinking Majority, must be a difficult day-to-day working environment.

I personally feel that it takes an extra measure of INTESTINAL FORTITUDE(in TUL) to vote against "them".

For what it's worth, you have my respect !
