I fit into group number two, which is by far, the largest group at Atlas. Those considering Atlas can just ignore the vast majority of the pilots on APC who are warning them to stay away from this place and they will join the ranks of the group two pilots soon. I will see you at the breakfast table in the morning and endure your complaining as if you were never warned.
