That was Monday. The office is busy dealing with all things that happened over the weekend that have to be addressed. Give it time.

If you don't get the call, consider yourself lucky and find other more fertile fields. Oh, you might want to self-evaluate, and try to understand why you didn't get that call. SAI hiring is based more on who is willing to come, versus who to select. There are still limits though, (hopefully).

Self-Evaluation: Something we ALL need to improve upon!

Any word on the Southern contract parity?

Looks like IBT, subject to ratification have agreed to put the Southern group on the Atlas contract. Not sure why they agreed to help solve the Southern hiring crisis but there must be more to the story.

All the best to our Southern brothers and sisters....

Fighting for a contract while riding into battle on the backs of Southern Air pilots. Some “brothers”.

Sorry for showing concern for my former friends and colleagues. During my time there, serving as a union volunteer, I just felt like Southern was treated more as leverage than family... just calling a spade a spade. Guess that makes me a troll.

Congrats to the Southern pilots out there! Hopefully we get a new contract soon but this is great for the Atlas guys too as it eliminates the possibility of merging work rules with Southern.

Well, I wouldn't go patting ourselves on the back so soon. It ain't over till the fat lady sings, and that's going to be a while.

Kudos to all the hard work the union reps/volunteers did.

Glad that we could be of service to your plight. Unfortunately that sentiment doesn't give me a warm fuzzy, nor engender strong feelings of brotherhood. Seems rather condescending.

To all SAI guys - do your union buddies a favor, just thank them for now, they cannot give you any more information until everything has been picked through by the lawyers on both sides. Patience please!

Word to the wise... AAWW management is not offering SAI pilots contract parity with the Atlas pilot group out of the goodness in their hearts.

There are undoubtedly strings attached and a hidden agenda. The SAI pilot group are hopefully brave enough to see that voting down this sub standard TA will put them in the driver seat. It’s obvious that AAWW management is feeling the pinch.

Bon courage!
