Flight Instructors employed at PSA Airlines have voted overwhelmingly to join the Transport Workers Union (TWU), America’s largest Airline Workers Union. Flight Instructors at the regional airline that operates American Airlines flights are divided into two groups, Simulator Instructors - who train Pilots on motion-based flight simulators, and Ground Instructors - who teach in initial procedures trainers and classrooms. TWU International President John Samuelsen said: “This is another victory for Workers moving to enhance their economic security. Now we fight to win that all-important first contract that will lock-in improvements in wages and working conditions for these hard-working Flight Instructors and their families. (This) vote also continues the TWU’s expanding presence at PSA Airlines along with PSA Flight Dispatchers.”
