(Reuters) — Pilots at Porter Airlines Inc. are attempting to form a union at the closely held short-haul carrier, an organizing drive that formally began in early January 2012, a Porter pilot familiar with the situation said on Thursday.
A six-member interim executive for the Porter Airlines Pilots Association, or PAPA, has sent an email, obtained by Reuters, to scores of the airline's 250 or so pilots, urging them to sign membership cards.
