A number of guys at 9S have gone on to WGA. Nobody has left WGA for 9S. Atlas has hired from both K4 and 9S. So as far as ACMI its pretty clear Atlas is on top, and 9S is on the bottom, but I'm not sure how I'd rank K4 vs WGA. Established scumbag vs startup scumbag: pick your poison.
Actually I'd disagree here. A lot of the Asian carriers will let you come aboard if you have a two engine Boeing background. For some reason they don't like going from 4 engine to 2 engine so if they are hiring for 737, 757, 767 or 777 you are good. Also there are a lot more companies looking for 777 folks than 747.
Also a certain company with purple tails has a trend of hiring folks with time in type and since they don't fly 747s...
