This is 100% false. We'll be tied up in law suits for the next year and a half. Then in 2019 the company will be forced to start real negotiations that may include an amalgamated contract that merges the worst of Southern and the worst of Atlas with a pay rate that's $5 an hour more than Kalitta. This would mean as a 747 CAPTAIN you'd be making $40,000 a year less than UPS/FedEx 2nd year FIRST OFFICERS... I don't expect things to get better at Atlas for 10 years or more.
