Where would they get the pilots from?

Southern cannot get the pilots they need now, for their 737 venture.

I think the only way they could get enough pilots, is to improve their contract so that it is like the one described above...
+1 cliff......... right on the money

I'm not a cool-aid drinker; but, "I'm all in" with the 1224's attempt to block DHL's union busting strategies they've used for decades and secure a better future for Southern, ABX, Atlas and Kallita. Basic supply and demand is turning the tables and bringing this race to the bottom to a halt and is giving us a chance to substantially raise the bar. Southern Air is proving this theory at this very moment. Pilots are simply unwilling to provide their services to an airline and get treated like dirt when they can go elsewhere and work under a great contract.
