I agree, I don't think Amazon really cares how much the pilots at Atlas or any of the other carriers are making. It's seems like it's basically the same model as the regionals. Atlas signs a contract for a certain amount of years to fly a certain amount of planes for a certain price. You get too expensive, whether that be because of pilot costs or not, it's not Amazon's problem. It's up to Atlas or ATI or whoever else is flying for Amazon to figure out how to make a profit. As long as the planes keep moving per the agreed upon prices Amazon is happy.
