My Fellow AirTran Pilots,
Today, you have chosen to proceed from the crossroads in a new bold direction. As we embark on this new journey, please do remember that the decision whether or not to be nationally represented has always been about your desire to have a functioning union. When the history of this pilot group is written, this moment will be among the most remembered. We are a great group of professionals who deserve better. Always remember, our success will not happen by accident.

In Service,
President, Linden Hillman
