BOX 1169o HERNDON, VIRGINIA 20170 703-689-4339 FAX 703-484-2103 December 4, 2003 Board of Directors Mesa Air Group 410 North 44th Street Suite 700 Phoenix, AZ 85008 Ladies and Gentlemen: We are the Officers of the Master Executive Council for the pilots of Atlantic Coast Airlines Holdings, Inc. (“ACA”), as represented by the Air Line Pilots Association International. We are writing to you on behalf of the 1,600 pilots at ACA to clearly state our unambiguous opposition to your announced intentions for our company. As we have previously stated via press release and in numerous media interviews, this pilot group and its elected leadership strongly support our current Board’s decision to transform ACA from a regional carrier into a Dulles-based, low-fare airline to be known as Independence Air. Subsequent to your unsolicited “expression of interest” of October 6, 2003, and with full knowledge of your announced intentions, this pilot group overwhelmingly approved an amendment to our collective bargaining agreement to support this transformation through wage reductions and productivity enhancements. With 93% of our eligible pilots participating in the ratification process, and of those, 97% voting in favor of the amended agreement, this ballot clearly demonstrates that ACA’s pilots are absolutely unified in our commitment to working with all ACA employees to ensure the success of Independence Air. We take exception with the uninformed and simplistic view that the ACA pilots support Independence Air only because it will provide an opportunity to operate larger aircraft.

  • INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE on AIR LAW (Montréal, 20 April to 2
    DCCD Doc No. 28 28/4/09 (English only) INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON AIR LAW (Montréal, 20 April to 2 May 2009) CONVENTION ON COMPENSATION FOR DAMAGE CAUSED BY AIRCRAFT TO THIRD PARTIES AND CONVENTION ON COMPENSATION FOR DAMAGE TO THIRD PARTIES, RESULTING FROM ACTS OF UNLAWFUL INTERFERENCE INVOLVING AIRCRAFT (Presented by the Air Crash Victims Families Group) 1. INTRODUCTION – SUPPLEMENTAL AND OTHER COMPENSATIONS 1.1 The apocalyptic terrorist attack by the means of four hi-jacked planes committed against the World Trade Center in New York, NY , the Pentagon in Arlington, VA and the aborted flight ending in a crash in the rural area in Shankville, PA ON September 11th, 2001 is the only real time example that triggered this proposed Convention on Compensation for Damage to Third Parties from Acts of Unlawful Interference Involving Aircraft. 1.2 It is therefore important to look towards the post incident resolution of this tragedy in order to adequately and pro actively complete ONE new General Risk Convention (including compensation for ALL catastrophic damages) for the twenty first century. 2. DISCUSSION 2.1 Immediately after September 11th, 2001 – the Government and Congress met with all affected and interested parties resulting in the “Air Transportation Safety and System Stabilization Act” (Public Law 107-42-Sept. 22,2001). 2.2 This Law provided the basis for Rules and Regulations for: a) Airline Stabilization; b) Aviation Insurance; c) Tax Provisions; d) Victims Compensation; and e) Air Transportation Safety. DCCD Doc No. 28 - 2 - 2.3 The Airline Stabilization Act created the legislative vehicle needed to reimburse the air transport industry for their losses of income as a result of the flight interruption due to the 911 attack.
