Minnesota Sen. Gene Dornink (R-Brownsdale), during a hearing on sick time, calls a female pilot a “stewardess” and apologizes:
PILOT: I’m a first officer for Delta.
DORNINK: I’m sorry?
PILOT: I’m a pilot.

We’re grateful to @SecretaryPete, Acting Administrator @PollyTrott, the @USDOT and the @FAANews for upholding the highest standards of aviation safety & security in the world. Today’s FAA announcement to examine the public charter loophole is a significant step in the right direction. Airlines like the proposed SkyWest Charter operation would use this loophole to skirt the aviation safety rules that have led to a 99.8% reduction in airline passenger fatalities.

Today, I proudly voted to stand with Air Line Pilots against unfairly raising their retirement age without analysis, study, or oversight by any U.S. safety agency. I urge my colleagues in the Senate to remove this harmful provision from FAA Reauthorization.

We stand in solidarity w/ rail workers in their fight for a fair contract, including paid sick leave. Rail workers, like all frontline transportation employees, made enormous sacrifices during the pandemic to keep America moving & deserve to be recognized for their contributions.

Today, I was humbled by the overwhelming show of unity and solidarity of the @Delta_Pilots at our system-wide picketing event. @Delta it’s time to get serious and negotiate a truly industry leading contract we have earned. #Deltapilots #ALPA #Hatsoff

There are at least 500 Pilots and Flight Attendants picketing with a well coordinated shift change and three orbits of picketers. This is just Atlanta - looks like there may be 1500 picketing across the country today! #HotLaborSummer
Right now @DeltaAFA Flight Attendants are out in solidarity with @Delta_Pilots fighting for their contract. #DeltaPilotsReadyToStrike #HatsOff
Join me in honoring the memory of Capt. Saracini who died on 9/11 by telling Congress to cosponsor and pass the Saracini Enhanced Aviation Safety Act, which mandates the #SecondaryBarriers recommended by the 9/11 Commission. alpa.quorum.us/campaign/3237… alpa.quorum.us/campaign/3237…

Over 100 pilots joined us in ATL to share their frustration over fatiguing and poor quality schedules. Delta Passengers and Delta Pilots deserve better. #DeltaPilots #ALPA #ScheduleWithSafety youtu.be/WgrqIjAXm0o

In NYC supporting our fellow @ALPAPilots @AlaskaPilots
@alaskapilots are in NYC now conducting informational picketing outside of an event expected to start shortly where @AlaskaAir Exec VP & COO will be speaking. Pilots are stressing a sense of urgency in the ongoing negotiations. Other @ALPAPilots are participating to show support.

“The only ‘normal’ thing around here is scheduling changes.” Passengers and pilots are demanding better from American Airlines. #frustrAAted

Since the attacks on September 11, 2001, @ALPAPilots have continued to advocate for the MANDATORY installation of a lightweight #security device known as “Secondary Barrier” simpleflying.com/alpa-faa-se…

The saying "two is better than one" reigns true more than ever when it comes to air safety. Two pilots on every flight deck keeps you safe. Learn more - buff.ly/3I3Ln8s

#Security and #Safety of our pilots is of utmost importance and the airline industry, along with government, airports, aviation workers and law enforcement, must take every possible action to protect the #FlightDeck, read more here bit.ly/3oEx7we

ALPA has continually called on the FAA to require 'secondary' cockpit barriers, a necessary step to protecting access to the flight deck.

U.S. airline jobs are at risk of being lost to foreign carriers who utilize unfair business practices. Join us in urging Congress to protect U.S. #aviation workers by passing the @RepKahele-@RepDrewFerguson Amendment to the Transpo. Appropriations. alpa.quorum.us/campaign/3434…

Today is the anniversary of United 232, one of the most dramatic events to unfold in #aviation. That day, four highly trained @UnitedPilots turned an improbable failure into what was an impossible outcome. These @ALPA pilots showcase the critical importance of a #WellTrainedPilot
Eric Hall retweeted
#Training and #Experience. Two important #Pilot requirements, just like having two #TrainedforLife pilots on the #FlightDeck.
ALPA #pilots are #TrainedForLife and ready for takeoff. This nation’s #pilots are not missing a single beat when it comes to safely transporting people and goods around the globe. -@ALPAPresident Capt. Joe DePete
