Contracting limits: 48% of labor dollars for AC maintenance excluding PBH contracts, various other percentage limitations on other M&R work. (Note: The more you are paid the more they can outsource!)
The TWU has already sold us out a year in advance.
With the TWU negotiating our next contract its time to fold'em and grab the KY.

FYI: Big Donny V. left yesterday for France to check out their MRO's their and also Lufthansa Technics. He wants to know why they are more efficient workers than we are. A few AMT's offered him the answer with France and Germany's 8 weeks of vacation and better medical, but he said that times are still rough and the company could never afford that.
BTW: I wonder who is paying for Don's trip?
Also, I wonder who paid ECLAT for the presentation this time, the company or the twu. Afterall, they both did for the selling of concessions, nice sure whose turn it is to pick up the tab.
We can always fix that...With the demise of AMFA, the TWU has no threat to force them to act like a union.
Make the motion and I will second it! Thats the best example of working together ive seen yet!Since TWU appears to be a wholly owned subsidary of AMR...Are we allowed to just pay our dues directly to AA? It seems like a good cost cutting measure to eliminate the middle-man. 🙂
God bless the rank and file,

There will be concessions every contract and concessionary letters of agreement in between.
Wrench, I do not believe that AMFA has accepted their demise. What AMFA was, is and will always be is about accountability in a craft, democratic union for AMTs. With that said, as long as there are those of us who believe in these virtues there will always be a threat to the opposite, ie. the twu international.
