But the "Blind Men and the Elephant" are already at it about the E3s. In post #6 the first incorrect statement gets made:
"...want to hire people cheap labor from Australia..." A contract is a contract and Es get paid like US citizens. If that were not true, there'd be no reason to have a contract.

I'm not at Atlas but at another U.S. Cargo Operator, so I can't comment directly about Atlas, but I believe the view and position of that thread starter from my experience is the minority. This bloke is that American die hard who can't think outside the yankland box, just a pot stirrer.
