Memo: State of Operational Emergency
02/15/19 - AMFA February 15, 2019 -- By letter dated February 15, 2019, Southwest’s Sr. Director Tech Ops Production Lonnie Warren declared a State of Operational Emergency which imposes extra-contractual demands with respect to the services of our Aircraft Maintenance Technicians and Inspectors with the explicit threat of termination if they fail to comply.

The CBS report exposed a problem so severe that two United States Senators have called for a congressional investigation. |
