LobbyIt.com Hill Report April 2012

Book of interest coming soon

admin — Tue, 15 May 2012 13:07:37 +0000

During the National Convention in May, the author of this book was a guest speaker. This is a book that details many issues in the Airline industry, including maintenance outsourcing.

This book is available via Amazon.com in pre-order.

“McGee interviewed countless industry insiders—pilots, TSA security screeners, FAA inspectors, legislators, the CEOs of the major carriers, and even Ralph Nader and Steven Slater, the disgruntled flight attendant who famously jettisoned a JetBlue flight. Here he reveals how airline executives are cutting costs in “a mad race to the bottom” by delegating flights to second-tier regional airlines and outsourcing critical aircraft maintenance and repairs to unlicensed “mechanics” in China, Singapore, Mexico, and El Salvador. And while the U.S. airlines have raked in tens of billions of dollars for checked baggage alone in recent years, our skies (and our airports) are not getting any safer. What’s more, McGee explains how both political parties and all branches of the U.S. government have conspired to place corporate interests above the interests of consumers, workers, the nation’s economy, and even the planet itself. Attention All Passengers will change the way you view the airline industry and make you think twice the next time you see the fasten seat belts sign.”
