ABX is on strike. Don't fly struck work.

Unlikely that regional pilots would even have the opportunity in the case of cargo, but stranger things have happened.


A judge ordered the ABX pilots back to work a couple of days ago so you're a little late on this one.

Someone already pointed that out so you're a little late on this one.

Careful what you consider struck work too. The guys over in the abx thread made it clear. DHL boxes-no go. Amazon boxes/unmarked. It's fine.

That said, in this day and age of long lenses and social media, is that a risk you want to take?

I don't think anyone said the definition is hazy at all. Are you flying a route on behalf of ABX? Are you a subsidiary flying an unscheduled route? If the answer of either of those is no, then you are not flying struck work. That's pretty simple. If you work for a pax airline and you see a DHL sticker on the airplane, AA or DAL is not doing DHL a favor. They are receiving a premium to carry those boxes and ABC is losing revenue.
