Message from Your APA 2118 Executive Board – March 23, 2026
|
Fellow Pilots, Last night’s accident at LaGuardia hit close to home for all of us. On behalf of our pilot group, we want to extend our sincere condolences and support to the crew of Jazz Flight 8646, as well as their families and everyone affected. Situations like this are a stark reminder of how quickly things can change in our profession. In times like these, it’s important that we take a step back and look out for one another. Stay engaged, stay disciplined, and don’t let complacency creep in, especially when things feel routine. Whether it’s a challenging operation, fatigue, or just a tough day mentally, speak up and lean on your fellow pilots and support systems. Our pilot assistance network is at your disposal to help deal with issues like these or other stressful situations that can occur. Contact them at We operate in an environment that demands our full attention every time we push the thrust levers forward. Let this serve as a reminder to stay vigilant, trust your training, and take care of yourselves and each other out there. |
| Fly safe,
APA IBT 2118 Executive Board |
