Default Moving Forward Safely & Professionally

The vote is over

TA 2015 is now Contract 2015

It is what it is

In the worldwide, overnight cargo business the 800lb Gorilla will always be fatigue & safety

Let's unite together to ensure we remain focused on this threat

It affects our short term safety & long term health

It does not matter that we have a new contract

Fly Safely, Fly Professionally,

Fly Healthy Fly Well Rested!

In Unity,

DLax

What in the He*& does this mean? We had a chance to fix many of the fatigue issues and safety issues by closing the loopholes in this contract. The union decided it was not important enough! I don't ever want to hear about safety or fatigue again at this airline. It is all talk, no action!

I do ask myself what were they thinking, but there are guys who will love the hard time daytime flying. Night flying 8 in 24 is still protected and it will result in less body clock switches domestically.
