A question to pilots on this forum that have time in type on the 747, how would one go get some time on the 747? Atlas and polar and some cargo/charter outfit have those 747 here in the states, but apart from that where would one pick up those time on 747s?
Atlas, Kalitta and Southern are the only one that hire into the 744 in the U.S. I was at World for 6 years before furlough, so I know you can count them out, probably for good. You might be able to get on with Air Atlanta Icelandic with a JAA ATP and widebody time. Other than that, I don't know any other carriers that hire into it unless your typed with time.
