Key Points: 
  • SPEEA, the union that represents some two-dozen technical and safety pilots at Boeing, says it is experiencing that as it tries to negotiate a new contract for the pilots.

    They are the company’s liaisons to the Federal Aviation Administration, National Transportation Safety Board and global aviation safety regulators.
  • SPEEA declined; Goforth called the request “weird.”
    “To put this in context,” he said, “Boeing has systematically hollowed out the SPEEA Pilot Instructors Unit, replacing valued Boeing expertise with contractors.
  • That’s four days after the contract for the SPEEA-represented Flight Technical and Safety Pilots expires.
