How many years has it been since Atlas left ALPA and went to IBT now? What have they done in all of those years? How is that trip trade working out? And having your own local, not paying dues on profit sharing. etc, etc. Dave Bourne is making plenty, still holding a seniority slot as well as Caputo. You all have been bamboozled and then some! But you keep on paying that 2.5 %, it pays for the prime rib and king prawns.

Wow, the Company blatantly lies, breaks agreements, and drags us through the court system time after time again, but it's the union's fault?
Perhaps if some of you guys showed some backbone we'd have had this done by now, eh?

You don't think ALPA MEC has surf and turf on your dime? What you think the hold their meetings at Subway? A union is as strong as it membership...the question is....will the Atlas pilots be willing to park airplanes if necessary? We saw how much help ALPA was when ABX went on strike and ALPA supported ATI crossing the picket line.... jackass's...

So I hear that if you work for K2, they won't let your transition over to K4, why is that, any idea?

Just my opinion. In addition to the valid responses you received above and on another thread, going to K2 is not a good idea for getting to K4. You go to K2 and fly very little, no international time, and no wide body time. Staying at a Commuter at least raises your Total time at a nice clip. Going to a wide body carrier gives you you that experience. K2,K4 are separate companies with separate owners who share certain administrative things. I think it was set up that way in case one lost their operating certificate. Assets could be shifted over to the other..
