welcome to alpa,

about us

master executive council

Following certification, ALPA appointed temporary representatives until the Porter pilot membership campaign is complete, when democratic elections will take place.

ALPA has established three Local Councils for Porter pilots, to include a captain rep, first officer rep, and secretary-treasurer. The three sets of captain reps and first officer reps together make up your Master Executive Council (MEC); those MEC reps will select a chair, vice chair, and secretary-treasurer at their first meeting.
