LARRY WILLIAMS 1967 - 1986 STATION AGENT TOP MEM SLC DFW NEWSLETTER FRONTIER AIRLINES MEC April, 1978 AIR LINE EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION, INTERNATIONAL (ALPA/AFL-CIO) WELCOME NEW CHAIRMEN We welcome you to the Master Executive Council. In particular, I’d like to salute those who are serving for the first time - Al Martenson (44), Don Christensen (47), Walt Hatfield (48) Martin Gulikers (71), and Jake Lamkins (74). I guess they are well aware they succeed some very capable union reps, but I’m also confident they’ll do an outstanding job. Helping them along will be five officers who were re-elected: Carolyn Boiler (46), Robb Ogden (70), Ora Nestelroad (72), Frank Monheiser (73) and myself (45). At our first MEC meeting, which should be scheduled soon, we’ll elect a Master Chairman and a Vice Chairman for this 1978-81 period. Thanks to the outgoing officers for all their help and support over the years. -Larry Williams, Chairman FL/ALEA MEC Taken from the July 7, 1978 to January 1, 1981 FL ALEA contract.

When he left SLC I'm sure he transferred to DFW. Do you know anyone there that might know of his whereabouts? -Paul Farris (3/5/07) Larry was in DFW until 8/86. I've never heard from him after that. -Ray Hall (3/5/07) I have not heard a word nor anything about/from Larry Williams since we folded in '86! LONG LIVE THE "FLamily! -Jon Sluder (3/6/07) L D WILLIAMS Seniority date of 7/3/67, emp # 09425, on the 1/1/86 FL/ALEA seniority list. -Jake Lamkins (3/5/07) Last Friday I went into my garage and began opening boxes that have collecting dust for decades. Most of the Frontier items I found haven't been viewed or looked at since the 80's. Example is the attached letter from September 1982. OKC was shut down due to thunderstorms so the DFW station had several diverted flights. FL/DFW at the time was ground handling all ML (Midway) RC (Republic) and TWA operations. It was a very interesting evening. The TWA 707 aircraft had to be fueled with an engine running since there was no APU/GPU available at DFW for the 707 equipment. We were able to push back the 707 using the available TWA ground equipment. I can't believe the letter made it this far. Do you recall many of the DFW staff listed in the letter? -Mike Gordon (6/10/13) Thanks for the letter which I found very interesting along with your comments about it. I recognized most of the names but some I had forgotten. Larry Williams was the ALEA Master Chairman when I first got elected ALEA Council Chairman in 1978. He was in SLC then. -Jake Lamkins (6/10/13) L D WILLIAMS, Emp# 09425, Batesville, AR 72501 per the Aug 1990 FL Roster. L D WILLIAMS Emp# 09425 DOB 5/13/46 per the Oct 1986 FL/ALEA seniority list.

He was pretty young if its the same guy -Linda Hamala (6/11/13) Yes, Larry was ALEA MEC Chairman 1977-78 then Frank Monheiser was elected.
