What makes you think Polar pilots will ever fly those?

What makes you think Polar won't?

Maybe the fact that Atlas pilots are flying 75% of the Polar trips as we speak.

 

[Whale Rider]

This is true.

Sounds like more of that Polar math that was used by Polar MEC Bobb Henderson during the bankruptcy. The Judge didn't buy into it either. Also thank him for screwing up the "Alliance Agreement" arbitration that gave AAWWH the OK to do it also.

Really sucks when the shoe is on the others foot. I remember placing a number of Atlas Pilots/FE's during our turn at furloughs when Polar hired off the street to fly the A/C moved over to them from Atlas as a negotiaion ploy by Jim Cato of Atlas HR.

Has the Polar union done anything to get their guys hired at other companies? At Atlas, we were furloughed often while Polar, AACS and even GSS benefited that we set up a Jobs Committee for our guys.
