ABX Air Latest

Thats true! don't get too exited
Where to begin. Well you can get a felony or 3 and become a VP! They can't fill a new hire class despite having a new contract. I suspect because the airline has no growth plans and even if there is growth ATSG can take the planes and pilot careers away in a split second in about 12 months from now when all the scope expires. There is no home basing when all other ACMI carriers have Home basing. Chime in management on this thread saying ABX has "work rules" not so much they like to reschedule at will now. The retirement isn't enough to make it stand out over ATI or K4. The hate for pilots gets worse by the month at ABX. Look elsewhere young grasshoppers!

Funny how working with and talking to the new hires in the last couple years, they are happy to be here and the majority have no plans of going anywhere. Your comments are based on what? Wishing they had less % match like ATI or K4 or Atlas, no scheduling protection like all the other ACMI carriers? Do they want lower disability like ATI, Atlas, K4, Etc? Please explain?

Survey
Another public service announcement ....
204 active ABX pilots participated in a recent union survey. 59 of those pilots expect to leave the employ of ABX in the next year or 2. Of that group, 37 expect to retire, 22 expect to resign. (Presumably going to legacy, Purple, Brown, LCC, etc.).
There were also some questions on schedule preferences, and other topics. I'll leave it up to active ABX pilots on forum to humor forum curiosity on those matters should they chose to do so.
Hth, you're welcome.
