Section 6 would be the best outcome, and I'm sure the pilot group would vote down a bad TA. Hopefully the amalgamation suit is won by the pilots- what is the projected date for the outcome?

He is right, there is no shortage of pilots. That is for any airline that pays their pilots Industry Standard. See - EASY BUTTON.

747, yes. 767, no. 767 classes coming 10/16 and 11/06.

Whale driver - I'll yield to you about the delivery schedule. I'd heard it had been pushed back but can't find a source for it. All 12 flying Amazon routes by year's end seems like a stretch, though.

They are on track for 76s for Amazon. They have 10 and the full 20 isn’t due until the end of 2018. Also, they are supposed to get another 4 74s next year, and that is just from the contracts signed in 2017. I imagine they will get more contracts. So, it is going to be tough to keep pace with the growth.

FYI
Atlas has suspended crew for two months, no pay for asking for coffee. They thought the delay was for coffe but the cargo was still being loaded created delay.
This should be an easy fight for the union but the company is taking hostages any way they can. And during that time you will be without pay and now a mark on your HR record that the next airline will be looking at.
Know your contract and where you take a stand.

No...just...no..

Other airlines you apply to can only verify your employment dates and what they see on PRIA. Anything else is against the law.

While that is terrible for the pilots involved, it has got to add to the bargaining power in negotiations later.

Yes, but most have a question on the app asking if you've ever been suspended.

What law?

No, it's not against the law. Most employers won't provide those details, primarily to avoid civil suits, but they can. If you've had run-ins with the company that led to any disciplinary action, the company can certainly reveal it, and there is no law to prevent it. In fact, anything in your training record or employee record can be passed along if the employer chooses, and the employer also always has the option of tossing mud by saying they wouldn't hire you again, without explanation. Not against the law, either.

I agree with most everything JB said... oh.. and that question on the next companies app..."are you eligible for re employment at your previous company".... says it all right there...
