In this ATAM we discuss the prolific amount of backsliding done by the Company on their recent agreements when it comes to Catering, Travel Arrangements and hiring enough people to keep the airline running smoothly.  The Mole makes another appearance to let us in on the behind the scenes problems plaguing Atlas Management.  All this and music too...your critiques have been heard loud and clear!  Enjoy!

#ATAM 5/15/15

Today, we present a softer side of the ATAM -- Paul Harvey style. 

Mike discusses the improvements that have been made so far this year due to your dedication to enforcing the contract and being more involved in the union. In the last 120 days, the union has been able to secure agreements that improve every pilot's quality of life in the areas of vacation, training, and management displacements. The full texts of these agreements can be found on the Giant Comms Facebook page, or on the Atlas 1224 website. Additionally, grievances for Polar pilots dating back to 2003 have been settled with positive results thanks to the continued dedication of your union representatives. 

We also cover some of the feedback we've received on the ATAM since it began. Some pilots prefer and more "NPR Style" broadcast, and this episode is dedicated to them.

Finally, last weekend Bob Kirchner attended the Teamster Unity Conference and 1224 E-board meeting in Las Vegas. Bob was able to meet with Dave Bourne and receive a full commitment of support from IBT National and the entire Airline Division. 

Thank you all for your commitment to the pilot group. Great things are ahead as long as we continue to hold the line.

 

Fly SAFE!
