Pre 2015 TA vote, we created Orange "VOTE NO" Swag, which included about 5,000 "VOTE NO, STATUS QUO" Luggage tags, 2,500 Lanyards and about 2500 wristbands.  

Our pilots (and others) generously donated some $5000 to fund the purchase of these items along with the shipping to get them dispersed throughout the system in record time.

Post TA rejection, we changed the campaign slightly to a longer term and more unifying "RESTORATION C2015" theme.  While there were suggestions for other slogans such as "RECALL MD-11", we chose a more positive tone that everyone could get behind.  A slogan that will stand the test of time long after the wave of recalls settles.

We ordered a batch of 1000 lanyards with the funds that were left over from the previous campaign.  The lanyards were dispersed in record time and we are now placing a larger order of 2500 lanyards.

$1700 should be enough to get the lanyards delivered to my doorstep, then ship out bundles of 50-100 to pilots systemwide to distribute to their fellow pilots.

The campaign may be expanded at some point to order more Luggage tags as well, but for now we are concentrating on Orange lanyards.

Thanks for your continued generosity and dedication to obtaining the contract restoration that we all deserve.
