Worldwide Air Logistics Group. The holding company for SouthernAir and Florida West. I doubt they could find the $ to buy Kalitta.

The check airmen will be the folks from TWA and ATA that flew the 75 & 76 many years ago; most as F/O's. And then, by this time next year, we will have DC-8 procedures from the Omega and mechanical INS era, intertwined into another modern era Boeing jet. And don't forget the Flight Engineer procedures that will most definitely get woven into a two pilot airplane.

Fortunately, pilots are showing their objection to our contract with their shoes. Many pilots gone so far this year and lots of empty interview chairs. For once the playing field is starting to be leveled. The RLA is a disaster for pilot groups.

Actually nothing wrong with the RLA...it only affects pilot groups of companies who want to treat their employees like crap and not pay them what they are worth. For places that respect their employees, pay them a fair wage and are willing to negotiate a new contract the RLA means zip. Guess it's easy to figure which category K4 is in.

These companies can be found by the permanent rainbow over the HQ building and the Unicorn petting zoo at the front door.

Wouldn't bother me a bit. I always love to get educated...actually it's called seeing someone else's point of view or maybe even a debate or i dunno a discussion and you know how we idiots are fond of that
