Thats the funny thing, before Covid they were so desperate it was not funny, then for basically the last 2 years things calmed down a little but still needed pilots now post pandemic if you want to call it that they will be more desperate than ever.
They know pilots will leave, others will go Brown or purple if given the option, then there are those that go to the majors so Atlas really cannot afford to be too selective or take too long either yet here we are watching them do exactly that.
The situation is only going to go from very bad to far worse now. They are not filling classes and within 12 months I suspect they will be in real trouble trying to get pilots at all and classes will be no more than 3 or 4, maybe I’m wrong but it sure looks to be going that way.
Of course maybe management have a plan we are just not aware of but it seems very unlikely.
