[QUOTE] If I were an RJ Captain with 1000 PIC I'd come to Atlas for the type in the hopes that it'd complete my resume. /QUOTE]

Why would u do that and give up your flowthru? All the major regionals all have flowthru sooner rather than later. Why would you do that and give up $15-$22k base monthly salary flying In China? Why would you do that instead of going directly to a major? Why would you do that instead of going to a ME carrier with a DFW base?...they will b forced to have US bases as the pilot shortage gets worse.

The pilot shortage will get worse and worse, until major changes like the above are implemented. Atlas could easily be left in the dust and not be able to get pilots, unless they drastically improve their contract.
