UPS will figure out a way to exercise control without "operational" control ... money talks

UPS already contracts. Just look any main gateway and you will see. Look at Europe, Asia and Africa. Browntails may not grow, but I am not worried about the airline going back to contrators. Obviously you see different.

UPS has other reasons to keep the air fleet in-house ... control.

Int'l override pay/hr:
Capt/IRO/FO:
$6.50/$4.50/$4.50
This needs to be fixed in the next contract. Way too low for international ops and no way should Captains get a higher rate. Most I have flown with are cheap Fer's that can't even buy a beer. Seriously only the ANC guys are worth flying with. Most SDF captains just suck when it comes to buying a round.

I will respectfully disagree with this comment. I have been SDF based on the MD for almost 4 yrs, and we have some extremely generous captains based here. Not that I expect it, but many have ponied up and taken care of me and/or crew. There will always be those that don't - no big deal. I can take care of myself.
