Just out of curiosity...what is there to educate? You want to know more about the K4 or ATI contract (or current book ABX)?? Download one if you are a member of 1224 or ALPA and review it. Else ask a buddy for a copy, nothing is top secret or requires educating....unless you're unable or unwilling to figure it out yourself.
Overall 707's post was good although it has inaccuracies (or maybe a better way to say it would be "different view") depending on what angle you are coming from.
Just for a simple example..days off.
K4 - 14/30 (14*12=168 off/year) ATI - 12/28 (12*13=156 days off/year) [ATI has a 13 bid cycle/year for those who do not know]. A 12 day difference or what could be a half a month or more of work, again based on view. We all know individualistically, i.e. position/seat, vacation, where you live, luck, etc.... one's mileage will vary. Not meant to be pro or con, you be the judge of that.
Interesting how the thread drift is massive...and the professionalism displayed....well, I'll say no more except it is entertaining!
Ok, so when was the next upgrade class at ABX again...(lol)
