FedEx did not screw up. Our margins were quite low with Amazon and was only 1.5% of our total business. The rule for Amazon is squeeze, squeeze, squeeze. That should go over really well with low paid pilots. Atlas is in a bind and if they want the Amazon business let them pass airplanes they don't have to Amazon. Their performance during our peak was to say the least not outstanding. And as for FedEx, we didn't get this big by being stupid. The good folks up at Hacks Cross already have it figured out.
