Re: Aviation Week Article on UA Outsourcing

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Yesterday, along with many of you, we saw the article in Aviation Week regarding the awarding of MRO work to AAR in Illinois. To clarify, NO additional work is being contracted out to AAR. This awarding of work is simply work that AAR has historically performed in Miami and which will now be moved to AAR in Illinois.

We will continue to closely monitor the outsourcing of our work and if a violation occurs, we will aggressively defend this membership’s rights, whether through arbitration, litigation, or in the halls of Congress via the Cares Act.

In solidarity,
