For those tracking Atlas

[Polar742]

What's new?

1) Sept 3, the arbitrator signed our CBA. The arbitrated sections (none of which are pay or workrules) are being sifted through as we speak.

2) 767s 1-3 (pax config) are on company property, 4&5 (unknown if pax or freight) are being negotiated. In a separate deal, DHL is giving us 5 767-200s to fly beginning of 1Q12

3) 3 747-8s are expected by the end of the year

4) LCF flying is ramping up (only 1 is crewed from scuttle butt)

5) New pax -400 on the way

TYPICAL AIRLINE DISCLAIMER: RAPID EXPANSION CAN WORK OUT REALLY WELL, OR THE WHEELS CAN FALL OFF THE BUS AND I'LL BE BEGGING FOR A C208 JOB. IT'S AVIATION, WE KNOW THIS AFTERNOON'S PLAN IS THIS EVENING'S DIRECT OPPOSITE DIRECTION

You dare to refuse THE RIP? The finest bourbon (and hence, the finest of the finest of lickers)? I'll see you in HELL, sir! I'm applying to Southern. I will be Robert E. Lee's Co-Pilot, yankee pig-dog.

I won't drink it if it doesn't burn blue.

How like a Yankee. Learn that on the Jersey Shore, did you? GOOD DAY TO YOU, SEAH! I SAY GOOD DAY!

The only reason your family settled in Kentucky was the wagon wheel broke on the way to Michigan.

You're lucky you're not showing up for NJC. A duel in a florescent pool with strippers as Seconds never ends well for anyone.

AFAIK

Are the 762s former ATI/Cappy birds?

Owned by DHL. I have no idea where DHL got them.

Article on DHL owned airplanes - 5 in number and not confirmed for Atlas

 

[jynxyjoe]

Good luck with it all Polar.

Hey does Bejoy still work in Dispatch over there? It's been about 5 years but he always seemed like a lifer.

 

[Maurus]

I bet they are ex-ABX 767s
