Iam Merger Information

[PITMTC]

Let see WF and FS were elected by their fellow union members, when was the last time management or the workers voted on who is their boss?

Compare apples to apples, not apples to oranges.

Otay, when was the last time, their positions when up for vote?
PS bald is bald

 

[AP Tech]

I believe FS was voted in last year, and as for WF I think once entrenched in the IAM at that level you are there for life, if he or she desires......i.e. Federal Judge!!!!

 

[TWskyliner]

Ask the former TWA flight attendants at American Airlines for a report card on the IAM. Oh that's right there are no former TWA flight attendants working at American Airlines.

We are entering a new era(hopefully) here at U. Still lots of cleansing to be done!! Cannot understand why when Hgr1&2 closed and many mechanics and related were furloughed, the majority of Managers, supervisors&support staff(secretarys) were simply transferred to Hgr 5 and positions created? Years ago the facility was run by 1 Manager. I do admit it is a clean hangar though!!!!!

Bottom line is U is still filled with "Spare" tires which need replaced!!

Don't forget about the new paint on the walls, they needed qualty supervison for that!

 

[AP Tech]

That is what I meant about the clean hangar!!! Luck we were able to create the hangar appearance supervisor position!!! Never saw that position come up on the COB's though........ 😛

Lets see Frank ran about a year or so again, twice as the election was rerun, his opponent was Bill Hayes.

And Bill ran District wide about 2 years ago, and had competition at certain locals.

See if you were an IAM member you would know these things.

Just One Visit from US Airways Mx Planning,Kind of Explained to me Why US Airways is In trouble,Us Airways has 120 Planning personel in there Planning Dept,Here @ AWA Phoenix AZ, We Have 6 Planner's Taking Care of 150 Aircraft, If you Do the Math That is Approximately 2 US Airways planner's per a/c.@AWA The Planning Dept People Have 25 A/C Per Planner. Now That is just one Example of An Area That is Over ran with People,and can be Overhaul'd.So Get ready for a Cleanup and Accountability Call to the Carpet for the Director of US Airways Planning Dept.Oh By the Way There Is A New Director From AWA that will Be In Charge of that Task,NOT an US Airways Director. MWW

 

[700UW]

Lets see, US has multiple fleet types, widebody aircraft and does heavy checks.

Since you guys don't do heavy checks you don't realize you need more people to ensure the work is done at the correct time intervals and places.

And planning also takes care of line maintenance also.

Airlines, Facing Cost Pressure, Outsource Crucial Safety Tasks
Heavy Maintenance on Planes Entrusted to Contractors;
A Busy Hub in El Salvador
By SUSAN CAREY in Chicago and ALEX FRANGOS in Comalapa, El Salvador
Staff Reporters of THE WALL STREET JOURNAL

JETBLUE AIRWAYS DOESN'T OFFER passenger service to El Salvador. But this year, the discount airline will fly at least 17 of its 68 Airbus A320 jets to that country.

There, over six days, local mechanics working for an aircraft-overhaul shop under contract to JetBlue will inspect each plane nose to tail. They'll examine hydraulic and pneumatic systems, lubricate joints, service brakes and paint tray tables and toilet seats. Then the jets will fly back to the U.S.

America West Airlines also is sending some of its planes to El Salvador for checkups required by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration. Northwest Airlines flies wide-body jets to Singapore and Hong Kong for service by outside contractors.

And this?

Aeroman, TACA´s Maintenance Repairs & Overhaul facility, is among the first eleven leading maintenance facilities in the world to launch the new Airbus MRO Network. The Network has been designed as an initiative to ensure the availability of competitive maintenance services and solutions for Airbus aircraft around the world.

“We are very satisfied that Airbus is considering our company as one of the eleven first MRO members to take part of this aircraft support network worldwide; this is also a reminder of our commitment and responsibility to continue the high quality standards that we have been delivering to our customers", indicated Ernesto Ruiz, TACA- Aeroman´s Maintenance & Engineering Vice-President. "In the past our mission was to get North American customers to believe in our work, today we have airlines such as JetBlue Airways and America West that have entrusted their reputation and brand to our technical expertise; and now our participation in this Airbus MRO Network really brings to light our competitiveness" , he added.

Aeroman

In 2004, it started to provide maintenance services for two of the most successful low cost airlines for the North American region; JetBlue Airways and America West Airlines. Since then they have trusted Aeroman´s broad technical experience with the Airbus A320 model, to entrust considerable part of their fleet to receive maintenance with specialized technical services in El Salvador during all of 2005.

Aeroman is certified by the United States´ FAA, Europe´s JAA, and civil aviation authorities of 13 countries, mostly Latin American. In December it was the first MRO in the Americas to obtain certification of the new European Aviation Security Agency, EASA. Also as of January 2003, relies on the support of being a ISO 9000-2001 certified company.

So how many tracks of Overhaul does HP have?

And a Phase check at US is an overnight check, is it the same at HP?

According to another IBT mechanic who has posted here, it is not a multi-day check, but done on the overnight, so which is it?

And if HP does heavy maintenance why are all the plane overhauled Timco and Aeroman?

A PHASE CK Is A Part of a C-CK. Similare to SWA. They Do The Same Phase ck MX.

[700UW]

You have failed to answer any of the questions, why is that?

I know what a Phase check is as US does a Phase check on the 767 overnights.

So are you going to answer the rest of the questions poised to you or are you going to ignore them since you know that HP outsources heavy mtc and overhaul?

HP does not do heavy checks in house. It was out sourced before the IBT was voted in at AWA. This is also answered in other threads Mr. 700.
