Atlas / Southern CBA

So these new hires had PIC time and that's why wide body/narrow body makes no difference? Or just lots of time and good knowledge in general?

I'll help you all out a bit here: Both UPS and FedEx require (prefer, but really it's require) 1000 PIC as a minimum.
Nowhere are there requirements for wide body time at any carrier.

Heavy Type, 1000 PIC > RJ Type, 1000 PIC
Either way, don’t go to an ACMI with under 1000 PIC. If something were to cause hiring to slow down and become much more competitive, who would you hire? Saying a heavy type and experience is not helpful, is pretty dumb in my opinion.

Latest scope negotiations were supposed to last two days, but the company only showed for 4 hours. The executives demanded no scope language that would hinder fragmentation of Atlas/Southern or any dry leasing plans. In other words, farming out airplanes without the pilots. A blank check to repeat the Stanstead Atlas Air Crew Services offshoring scheme of ten years ago; Transfer flying and hire lower paid European pilots, give them super seniority for upgrades and get the ability to downgrade and furlough Atlas/Southern pilots simultaneously. Think about that as you’re signing the application. Scope was one of the few articles that went to arbitration during the Atlas/Polar merger. Your journey towards 1000 TPIC here may come to a sudden end after the arbitrator hands us our next JCBA.
