Amy Robinson:

Today's SWAPA number is 3,025. That's the total number of aircraft mechanics and related professionals at Southwest Airlines, which are represented by the Aircraft Mechanics Fraternal Association. AMFA and SWAPA have worked closely together over the last few years to help one another out during contract negotiations.

So on today's show we spoke with Scott King, National Safety and Standards Director for AMFA about maintenance issues, AMFA's focuses, and how pilots and mechanics can best work together.
