We probably lost on that deal? Should all of the 757 pilots sue ALPA?

The company LOOKS at a lot of airplanes, including the 787. Doesn't mean squat until it's painted purple.

I heard just last week that they're looking into a drone fleet to compete with amazon's two hour delivery in major metropoliatan areas. Finally Air Force UAV pilots will be able to count all those "flight" hours on PilotCredentials.

DHL wanted Southern to fly 28/29 737s for their domestic hub operations, so they might also make sense for FedEx.

I read that DAL was considering buying Atlas in 2012, but they decided not to.

Well I heard that they were thinking of making you the chief pilot @ Atlas, but they decided not to!
