For what it's worth, if the Atlas contract and pilots just chase the money and fail to include a scope clause they're wasting an opportunity to protect their careers.
Read between the lines of the following statement from Richard Schuyler....
"At the same time, the unique global network being created under Atlas is one of the most exciting developments in the company's history,'' noted Shuyler. "With an expanded product offering that includes such innovations as fractional ACMI flying, Atlas is leading the way in making a truly globe-spanning, full-service air cargo network available to the world's airlines with preferred access to the world's most important air freight markets. The response to this effort has already been positive, and we look forward to announcing further developments in this area during the course of this year.
Expect more outsourcing (and internal group infighting) to follow.
Cheers,
