767 initial was 7 weeks for me 3.5 years ago, and that was tight. The first time we had more than 1 day off was just prior to the Oral. There was a 747 class at the time that started before us and finished weeks after. (They had 10 days off for Thanksgiving, we had one)
Thing is - it doesn't really matter how long it took another class, just how long it takes yours. Holidays can complicate things, sims can break, but the basic footprint is right at 8 weeks or so.
As with all things Atlas, YMMV.

I still don't see them in the attendees list, so it's beat to keep checking in hopes it changes...
So far it looks like only the regionals, UpS, Southwest, XO jet, Frontier, and Virgin America have confirmed
