My impression was that Atlas pilots dominated 1224 and the head of the local was an Atlas pilot. Is this therefore some kind of maneuver to avoid the "combine the lists" contract language? Wouldn't there have to have been a vote that people would have debated on here and elsewhere, as with the K4 pilots, if this were "real"? Can one undermine the system board decisions nunc pro tunc by having one pilot group leave the local now? Here is another 3 years of litigation coming... And maybe that is the point.
