World, Nice summary of your day with our folks in Miami...
You apparently figured out the spirit of how things work at Atlas...flexibility on the part of everyone involved including employees, and even the Company's business plan, all of our vendors,...and sometimes even the customers!!
The Air Force One training has been in place since 2007; the recent press release was simply an extension of the existing agreement with the Air Force.
One other thing...the number they mentioned (140) that have been hired must not be a very recent calculation...but some time ago, I counted approximately 267 pilots hired since this hiring push began in April, 2010. And remember, our latest Base award lists 943 pilots. So, 28% have been here only 2.5 years!!
