look rotor, your approach to the ABX pilot group can be described as very hostile. The threats from your union are heard from more than just the ABX union. I have had loadmasters come up to me and ask why the Astar pilots are being so hateful to ABX. Where are they getting that? So while I understand your frustration with your management and even DHL, you seem to be taking it out on ABX. And I think the level-headed Astar pilots are asking for ABX support and the hateful individuals such as yourself are cutting them off at the knees.
Just as you should not bring home problems to work and work problems home, you should not threaten those whom you wish support from if your anger is for another. Or sue them.
Calm heads prevail, and I think ABX has been very calm about what they have had thrown at them the past 4 years. Just a bit of advice you can take or leave. If you want to try and bust my balls go ahead. I can take what I dish out.
Wow shooty, a little anger management perhaps in your future?
So show me the post where I "threatened" anyone? It's easy, just go back and review my previous post. I'll await your results.
Funny thing, when you make claims such as " I have had loadmasters come up to me and ask why the Astar pilots are being so hateful to ABX." we have heard the same thing on our side of the fence, except it's the other way around.
I have always commented on what a professional group the ABX pilots are, with the exception of a few disgruntled (that being guys like yourself).
I have noticed the angrier you get, the more twisting of the facts to try to make your point. Just a suggestion, stay on track, it makes the debate more interesting.
Oh, and one last suggestion, try the decaffinated brands. They are just as tasty as the regular stuff!
Hope you have a real nice day!
anger management? sure, but I don't know why. Is it because I throw trash at YOU? I know most of the Astar group are a bunch of stand up guys/gals. I have said so numerous times.
The threats come from your union when they say/post/write the things they do. What do you think they are pushing when they start throwing the scab word around? Do they think other union groups do not know what scab work is? Do they think other groups do not understand? I do know it seems like ALPA does not know how to work with other groups and say something to get that support on a positive note. There is not 1 aviation employee that does not understand what can be done. If its Astar work. Were the union groups of Northwest scabs because they continued to work when the mechanics went on strike? And what were the reasons the other groups did not support the mechanics line?
And as far as the lawsuit....you need a pee test if you do not think that is ALPA trying to kill off ABX. If you say different, I would like to know what your goal is with it when it comes to ABX. Sure you can't haul all the boxes without ABX, but what is it you want? Total control over ABX? Do you want ABX to work for DHL only if YOU say they can? I think it has taken total control (and other ABXers can correct me if I'm wrong here) for the Teamsters to not join in with ABX company to defend the ABX position against your suit. They see something I don't I guess. I could understand it in the beginning for both sides to need to work together, but some (like yourself) see no harm doing what is being done. Maybe one day Astar will push ABX enough for the gloves to come off and the pilot group starts swinging back. Until then, maybe there is still hope for your group to join with ABX in working for both groups to benefit from DHL work.
Again, this just the rant from a dude on FI, which is public board and nothing to with anything on the operations. And those loaders...I see them all when they load all the aircraft, not just ABX or just Astar.
maybe I will come to your anger management class. You seem to be an expert in saying others have an anger problem. So your instructor must be telling you it's others fault rather than you own. Did they come from Hollywood?
Hey shooty, c'mon man.....Just get back on the Prozac and it will be ok.
Have a really nice day, OK?
Well shooty, the same can be said about you. Thankfully you are a very minor opinion in relation to the ABX pilots as a whole. I must say the ABX pilots I have been in contact with are a very professional and level headed bunch.
Just keep believing in your myths.
And have a really great day!
You wouldn't know."Professional" is just a word to you. You certainly are not.
Have a nice day!
Erich Hartmann - top ace of all time

Top Fighter Pilot
Who was the most successful fighter pilot? Who was the number 1, number one ace? The ace of aces? The highest scoring ace of all time was the great German Luftwaffe experte Erich Hartmann with 352 aerial kills. Flying Bf 109s (Me-109s) against the overmatched Soviet MiGs and Yaks for almost three years, he accumulated his unrivalled score. Hartmann claimed, that of all his accomplishments, he was proudest of the fact that he never lost a wingman.
I'll bet your a joy to fly with.
