I can. Like you, I'm on my 7th airline and I am blessed to be here.

We may arguably be on top today, but tomorrow holds no guarantees especially within aviation.

Hopefully, UPS sees the pilots of ASTAR and ABX as a gold mine of talent. After our poolies, it would be beneficial, IMHO; to hire these experienced cargo pilots to fly our cargo planes.

Salty Dog, brings up an excellent point. Our MEC should have his hackles up to make sure that the scope of the flying resides within the IPA pilot group. Point well taken, sir.

Ok, back to my igloo,
