Atlas lowered their mins 4 time already since 2011. They had to revamp their training to accommodate the low-experience new hires. ..some now have no jet AND no international AND no flights above 18000'. Also a good number have no turbine PIC. About 1/2 of regional pilots, and probably all pilots, won't do long haul. Next Atlas will have to hire C-172 instructors With bareach ATPSs. Current new hire attrition about 50% is the rumour...and no-shows for class.
