AMFA National - Aircraft Mechanics Fraternal Association

The votes for the AMFA – Mesaba Airlines Mandatory Overtime Pay for Field Service Trips Letter of Agreement (LOA) Referendum were tallied on November 2, 2009. Ballots for this referendum were counted by AMFA National, and the ballot count was certified by a Notary Public. The results of the referendum are as follows:

In an effort to settle grievance number 202221 (Mandatory Overtime Pay for Field Service Trips) the Company has offered a settlement; however, part of this settlement requires the modification of our current contract language for the PMI data entry for deferrals.

In December 2007 AMFA National called for nominations to fill the positions of Primary and Alternate AMFA – Mesaba Airlines (XJ) Aviation Safety Action Program (ASAP) Event Review Committee (ERC) Representatives in accordance with AMFA National Policy.

Two members were submitted in nomination for these positions; Darrin Ceason indicated that he preferred to serve as the Alternate AMFA ASAP ERC Representative while David Dufour preferred to serve as the Primary. Therefore, as only two candidates have been nominated to fill two positions, no election is required at this time.

David Dufour will serve as the XJ membership’s Primary Representative on the ASAP ERC. As the Alternate, Darrin Ceason will serve in the event the Primary is unavailable.

AMFA National is accepting nominations from Local 33 (the Local representing the Mesaba Airlines membership) for the positions of Primary and Alternate AMFA – Mesaba Air (XJ) Aviation Safety Action Program (ASAP) Event Review Committee (ERC) Representatives.
