The only thing we need to hear now is if we don't take this pay package we will shrink.

I just don't understand people that keep saying "this is crap" when the email literally said no details at all.....
And I understand history repeats itself but people already have pitchforks armed and fires started!!! Why are people arguing and getting frustrated over rumors and a vaguely written email...nothing to talk about. They shouldn't even have sent the email.

So, anyways, where is your guys evidence it's a 1% contract? History is all you got?
Why is there even a thread? We literally have nothing to talk about except argue what it could be....but I'm sorry I have to be here for a set amount of years to respond.

Do you want that 20K annual bonus that others get- A 50K bonus to each 4250 pilots on an average year wipes out every penny of profit this company makes. Dispatchers are in short supply and turning over to mainline just like pilots so they need more $. Mechanics are in the same boat so they need $.
Then their is Wall Street. They need bigger dividends and millions of dollars in crappy buy backs. The money isn't there.
Atlas Air Cargo pilots are exactly in the same boat as the rest of the contract world....the whole business is built on cheap labor.
