Well, while reading FedEx/UPS gossip, there is a thread on APC stating that ATI is getting ABX planes. I guess they have one on the ramp/on paperwork (N748AX)

More detail over there.

It was a 1 for 1 trade for a Etops aircraft, old news.

Amerijet voted in the union in what? ...2004?

Hey people! Look at you're watch; it's 2009! How long do you wait? Amerijet pilots are crazy to put up with it forever and ever. What's the point? The company has exactly what they want...no union.

I'd pick a day and fly 'em all out to out stations and buy a ticket back.

It seems your stock is doing OK.

It seems your stock is doing OK.

Yes, the ATSG stock is doing well but that does not mean ABX is doing well. ATSG is leasing aircraft all over the place and that is not good for ABX. The management is in a win/win situation for themselves. No matter what happens, they win. Reduced costs for ABX, they win. No reduced costs, they lease aircraft out and win. The ones that suffer are those of us working for ABX. The management and stock holders make out no matter what happens. The only difference is we will be out of work, not the management. They secured their future.

EDIT: To hell with the rest of us seems to be what it has boiled down to.

Hate management. Feelings left over from Eastern.

I guess that depends on your idea of "OK".
