So...what does Polar do to support the Atlas crews in their efforts? It would seem to me if Polar takes on the Atlas aircraft and accepts the Atlas flying, it would be tantamount to scabbing. . .. .I think it's obvious, the only reason Polar is still operating is to be used as a tool against Atlas and ALPA. Should Polar take an anti-Atlas position to ensure their own survival or support Atlas by refusing to fly their cargo? If Atlas survives it's probably the end of Polar. Atlas purchased Polar for two reasons, access to the Japanese market and the 400s Polar has on order.. .. .It's a tough call for both parties and a position I wouldn't want to be in if I were either MEC.. . . . <small>[ 24 March 2002, 14:01: Message edited by: fr8box ]</small>
