Sorry to say, but no politicians showed up.
Prater and Rice were in attendance, along with numerous IBT 747 members, and I actually think I heard the President of IBT 747 was in attendance.
Prater's statement, along with MEA MEC's Chairman's message was very clear.
The RAH pilot group is not to blame. The blame for this latest outsourcing adventure is squarely on the management teams at each company (MEA and RAH).
It was also made clear that we, as union brother and sisters (no matter what affiliation) are all in this fight together.
MEA Flight Attendants and Mechanics were also in attendance.
