According to the US DoT Bureau of Transportation Statistics 2023 data of Non Stop Domestic and International Freight, Kalitta hauled 26.5% of Atlas Air World Wides total.
Kalitta Air: 1,476,663,165 Lbs
Atlas Air: 4,065,864,123 Lbs
Polar Air: 1,500,124,404 Lbs
AAWW Total: 5,565,988,527 Lbs
You would also need to add in some type of passenger/cargo equalizer to account for all the pax flights Atlas conducts. Of course, that would lower your percentage and ruin your narrative.
