NMB Sets Representation Election for Atlas, Polar Flight Crewmembers
I am not familiar with the rules around this. Is the teamsters allowed to push for a vote on the issue? Or does representation from the pilot group need to get the ball rolling?

US Airways and AmericaWest v. 2.0. Nothing like voting in a new union to get the ball rolling on a smooth integration of two pilot groups.
I know the issues, but is this really the best solution? Let's hope so, for all the Atlas/Polar guys, as well as pilots in general.

It is significant that the Teamsters first act has been a single carrier petition, and that the NMB wasted little time in deciding in favor. ALPA should have done this in 2001. Think about that – for 7 years ALPA National has let this thing fester.
