Is management incorrectly assuming 4th qtr will be a good one?

Every quarter is a good quarter for Atlas execs as they stuff their mattresses with cash from the Atlas piggy bank

Wait a minute...is this true? Was this 'change of control' proviso enacted triggering the payout? If so, this is notable, and worthy of dissemination to the crews. Yikes.

It was disseminated to the crews. See the unions response to 3rd quarter earnings announcement....

Was the Union's response emailed out? Or just on facebook or something? I never saw it..

Sounds like a dozen probation FO's got fired. Looks like Atlas is hiring anyone, then culling the herd afterwards?

Amazon Flights Getting Bumpy -- Market Talk

10:32 ET - Labor disputes are challenging the big air-cargo ramp by Amazon ( AMZN) , with Air Transport (ATSG) and Atlas Air (AAWW) both battling strife in their pilot ranks while frantically hiring to keep up. ATSG officials say their 3Q conference call that some pilots have stopped volunteering for extra work, just as the peak season looms--forcing it to pay premium rates to maintain service levels. It's also taken the Teamsters to court, alleging it violated labor agreements by advising pilots not to work extra flights, a charge the union contests. ATSG will have 3 more Boeing (BA) 767s flying for AMZN during the peak season. Amid its noted revenue beat, ATSG rises 3.2% to $13.38, turning positive for the week.

I don't know about a dozen but i know of 2 recently for sure. Things are getting nasty over there beware... And it's not culling the herd, it's firing people for advising others not to help the company in negotiation time.
