It has been a busy year for the LEC Officers and our ALR and I wanted to provide a recap of happenings and accomplishments that have taken place at Local 11. The Joint Advisory Council (JAC) was held in Tampa, Florida this past month. While there, we were introduced to representatives of the newest members to AMFA from Spirit, Sun Country Airlines, as well as a representative from L3 in Canada. Click on the headline to read the entire update...On June 21, 2022, Local 11 assisted the Southwest Airlines Pilots Association (SWAPA) with their informational picket. SWAPA is very appreciative of the time and effort put in by our members. AMFA only did two things for us last week. Your volunteers and picket teams did ANYTHING, and they did EVERYTHING. Thank you.
