[QUOTE="cheryl, post: 946275, member: 1"] [URL="http://webfarm.bloomberg.com/news/2012-02-29/lahood-to-meet-with-cargo-airlines-on-u-s-pilot-rule.html"][B]LaHood to Meet With Cargo Airlines on U.S. Pilot Rule - Bloomberg[/B][/URL] The Independent Pilots Association, which represents UPS’s 2,600 pilots, filed suit Dec. 22 in an attempt to overturn the cargo exemption. Request Rejected The union, in a Jan. 19 letter it released by e-mail today, asked the Atlanta-based company to agree to operate under the new rules. The company turned down the request, union President Robert Travis said in a letter to LaHood today. “I applaud your initiative in seeking voluntary compliance from the all-cargo industry,” Travis said. “We agree that legitimate reasons do not exist for these carriers to operate outside of the new science-based pilot duty and rest rules.” [/QUOTE]
