Atlas was at #2 in the US at net profit per pilot. During COVID it is probably the same, but maybe Atlas pushed to #3 behind UPS and FedEx. Higher chance is Atlas is #1, or #2 behind UPS, as before.

That fee covers about 10% of the actual cost for upkeep of the highway system due to trucks using the system.
