Excuse me!

Oh we do respect Polar, it is the other ex-military mind-set we don't trust.
First they "buy us" for next to nothing, gives away five of our paid for aircraft of which went to our competitor to beat us over the head with, (still is and making a lot of money doing it),then a $20,000,000 loan that was given to Atlas the December prior to the sale goes away, they try to take our Japan trips and some China trips and were thwarted by the respective governments when they were caught. We also found, from the ground handlers from Prestwick and Korea that Atlas deliberately delays Polar flights (why I have no idea; I assume to make us look bad). No wonder we look to the other side with a jaundiced eye!!

I'm curious... how does this whole thing effect the world or other pilots. Polar and Atlas... talk or cry amongst yourselves.

Keep right on dreamin' Merc!

I don't have to dream. Just want it in print for the masses outside the Polar/Atlas feud that Polar has been reaching out for to trash Atlas pilots. I already know trying to prove otherwise to the Polar crews would require deprogramming of them first. Personally, I'd preferred to keep our fighting to ourselves, but the Polar MEC used it's underground to include other councils, non-ALPA carriers, and web sites like this one.

I find it funny that the list of the so called 60% of Polar flying is done by Atlas listed above is flying in a large part to South America which were originally Atlas routes. They were wet leased to Polar. They may now be transferred to Polar. Ooops, you forgot that!

While I don't have the the mediators written results of the Polar/Atlas "counseling" meeting, I did score a copy of the Atlas union presentation to the ALPA Executive Board Meeting. It covers the timeline of what evolved between Polar and Atlas. The good and bad.

All Polar has ever done is use it's underground to bad mouth the Atlas pilots and demean ALPA. Word of mouth from a brainwashed cadre of Polar union chairmen is sooo much better and harder to sue against than a standup fight.

Has Polar ever provided a document of any kind other than an unauthorized and illegal scab list from an anonymous poster to back up their postion other than the above hand picked and truly uninformative schedule?
