I’d be coming from the 135 side. I have the option of going to a regional or applying to Atlas/Southern. But as much as I love the shiny jet, I don’t want to make my decision off of the possibility of flying the B777. Gonna need to give this some more serious thought before pulling the trigger on either route.

Again, I really do appreciate the input!
No problem. I came to atlas from a part 135 gig as well. Best advice that I ever received was to make sure that I could live on minimum pay here. Although the recruiters claimed that I’d be making 75-80 hours a month, that just hasn’t been the case. I consider it lucky whenever I break guarantee.

Been at Atlas for about 3 years. I was making decent (but not nearly fantastic) money at my 135 gig, and after 3 years here I’ve still never earned what I used to earn there.
