I don't have the details for the 777/737 fleets, but I believe that they're similar in terms of frequency.

From what I read, from other Atlas pilots, 737 hiring is almost zero. Everything else is maxed out. They are adding 777s as soon as they have enough to crew a new plane. They have been adding a number of 747s, and I think 767 must be programmed for growth, because of what they told us and the increase in 767 pilots in JFK +.

I thought they stopped the 737 classes because we're not getting more airplanes after all?. Sooo many pilots

I stoped trying to figure out the plan with the 737 fleet a while ago.. the only reason I think there’s a class at the end of March is the vacancy list the union published said they needed mentors for that class

Positive space to work and hotel provided.

Bad coffee compared to other planes. Lots of chances to explore.

Week on week off don’t sound that bad. I’d enjoy that schedule and the 767. I bet Atlas is getting more of them soon. Any classes for new hire’s this summer? Interviews?

RyeMex may have the word on projected classes. As for the future of the fleet, it's anybody's guess.
