Might be a good time for ATI to get onboard with Teamsters. I know Atlas will have my back.

Absolutely. Seems like it would be in the ATI pilot group's best interest too.

The strike vote WILL overwhelmingly result in a YES.

The probability is decent that we will be released to strike.

I will pity the bottom feeders that cross the picket line.

IMHO, if Amazon wants reliable service, they're making a huge mistake by following DHL's flawed model of using multiple airlines. They'll just end up with a lot of disgruntled pilots, who's morale is in the crapper because of the continual attempts by management to whipsaw them in a race to the bottom, providing considerably less than reliable service. Amazon would be better off sticking with UPS and Fedex, because their reliability, as poor as it may be, will be better than what it looks like they're headed for. At least our current agreement with them will take me hopefully to retirement. It'll be an interesting few years...
