And how exactly is 1224 gonna be taking it in the shorts?? Yes I am ALPA and on the other side of the fence (again) But I just don't see that at all. 1224 has a beaucoup mature robust contract, light years ahead of ATI's. They have always managed to keep Uncle Joe by the short hairs.

Personally, I don't believe it will happen. But if it does it will be a nightmare trying to retain the best of both operations certificates.

Besides, gray washes me out.

Don't worry. ABX just got new uniforms. Guess what color they are? Yep...navy blue.

ATI is moving operations to ILN next month. Remember what happened at CCIA just before they announced the ATI/CCIA merger?

What do you mean? Are they leaving Little Rock and the Bank Building?

Also, does anyone know when the ATN code goes onto the Cappy planes flying DHL CVG?

MCO is being shut down. OCC ops are moving to ILN. Corp and records is staying in LIT. They like working with the DFW FSDO.

Don't know about the ATN tag.

We are not just "other carriers" under an umbrella. We are a separate company with it's own Operating Certificate, CBA, Seniority List, letter head and corporate p1ss pot. If an ABX pilot wants a job at ATI, man up then. Fill out an app, get an interview and start where I and every other ATI employee start, at the bottom in ALL respects.



Quite frankly, we don't want your deal. I really hope you did not give up to much on such a fools errand.

At a time like this, i am remembering your words from 2010 and the kind of welcome you gave to the ABX pilots going to ATI. In fact, many people remember those statements. I'm sure you can imagine how it feels to be told you are not welcomed where you are, especially if you have no place else to go.

I'm just wondering if your feeling have changed?
