how bout this?

http://www.aircargonews.com/060130/unitedcargo.html

remember scott dolan? used to work for AAWH? now running UAL cargo division? speaking of widebody dedicated cargo aircraft? lots of money in the bank? intimate knowledge of operations/finance/contracts at AAWH?
Erickson retiring? Erickson's past record on airlines Reno Air? and TWA? i think sold em both after bankruptcy

UAL has huge brand recognition in the far east and would love to get a hold of a profitable little airline, but make no mistake, if they buy a "bottom feeder" which is how the union brothers will brand both atlas and or polar we will surely be furloughed and/or maybe given a preferential interview only! pray this dolan character uses big airline mentality and just goes out and wastes a couple billion on new airframes instead of buying us cheap. we are a bargain.

or not, talk amongst yourselves, but i bet we would get solidarity in a hurry between POLAS if something like this were to go down.

dont start any rumors i just try to read between the lines because that is where all the details usually hide

Bottom Feeders?

I just looked at the payscales at UAL and Atlas, they are almost identical, I am willing to bet with some of your work rules and pay credit you make more.

Is someone forcing you to view this thread at gunpoint? This topic has been viewed more than 4851 times, so obviously many people disagree with your view.

Might I suggest that you start your own "exciting" profit sharing thread?

Not any more, I don't think the Legacies have that image. Not to mention the canned flying we do. Kudos to you guys and the flying you do..It must be challenging, but I am sure rewarding.

If you notice 747-300 started this thread. After no one bit he kept trying and trying until he got a few atlas buddies to join the we are not scabs love fest. Lots of things failed during the strike. But simply and truthfully its idiots like this 300 guy that proves time and time again how stupid pilots really are. The whole cut off my nose to spite my face is pitiful and just what management wants to see. It proves to them time amd time again just how stupid we are. Money, and QOL thats it. try to have fun while at work to ease the pain. All of this other stuff is just bull crap. As far as the scab thing goes if the shoe fits wear it. Dont be a punk. Lots of good guys at Atlas and Polar. Dont follow this dumb ass 300 guy down the slippery slope. if you gotta spend hundreds of words defending actions of self or other crew members then somethin is probably up. This is the Pepsi generation now where we are saying hey its ok to go around picket lines yada yada yada. I dont work for either but the last thing I want to walk around with at this point is an atlas id in my pocket. Good luck. And thats to both of ya. Atlas, and Polar. Alpa has proven its worthlesness by this prime example of Atlas/Polar. 2 pilot groups same company and ALPA still couldnt get it together....DUMB DUMB DUMB

Yea, but "Diarrhea in a Freighter" is kicking butt with over 45,000 views. Shows wants important in the world.
 
To those who will be initiating legal action as a result of Polar's recent actions:

The leader of the Strike Breakers Committee at Polar is Capt. .

Just heard from a friend at Polar that there may be only one guy they actually have enough proof to proceed with Article 8 charges. What a joke! After all the tough talk, name calling, threats and accusations.....only one guy, MAYBE.

The Polar MEC owes an apology to all Atlas crews. It's not likely we'll ever get one.
 
It's off

I just heard from a fairly well connected friend at Polar that the sale is off.

You, and everyone else who said Polar was for sale. Problem is, none of you have posted a shread of evidence that talks of any sale was going on. No articles? No Company announcements? All rumor! Which means All Bull $hit!!!!
