So you're saying this pilot represents Atlas pilots as a group in any way?

Lol, that's just a sad abuse of the right of fair comment and shoots your credibility right into the toilet.

Almost as absurd as saying every Southern new hire needs to have multiple DUIs and is unhirable anywhere else. Most of us got the point. A few idiots aren’t representative of the group, although they often speak the loudest.

Negative remarks typed out by anonymous keyboard warriors is NOT exactly something to be offended by or lose sleep over.

The type for what? Some lucrative 777 expat job in Ethiopia? Or bragging rights to buddies at the bar and awesome selfies?

That actually isnt a terrible plan. However, It wasn’t that long ago atlas was hiring a lot of Kalitta guys. I think the upgrade times at the rj operators are going to drop to near zero here in the future as mainline hiring ramps up. I’d stay put or go to a regional with dec. coming into this ACMI circus doesn’t make sense to me anymore. There was a time a few years ago when a lot of us came bc no one else was hiring and we’d already gone as far as we could at our previous job. but that’s all over now. With thousands of job openings at career airlines why would you come to a place that won’t get you there any faster and will be a miserable experience for the foreseeable future.

Home basing, that's why. If I had to go back to commuting, I would seriously be looking at an exit strategy to being a pilot.

Ok. Go tell atlas/southern at the interview how excited you are about “home basing”. The HR nice lady will give you her famous smile and correct you. It’s “gateway”. She’s very pleasant. Maybe they’ll show you the special simulator for special pilots. It’s a 747-200 btw.

That's ok, I already did the 200 sim for Kalitta.
