Good luck
Where did you read or hear this? I specifically asked the HR lady I spoke with at the job fair and she said they were going to be there. I then asked if that was a definite and she said yes.

Do schedulers do more than simply cut'n'paste? If they're going to extend the window for outbasing then the following statement should probably be deleted before resending out the intial request. Obviously the volume is low by this point.

"Due to the high volume in requests for Out-Base please reply to this email with your information filled in the spaces provided below."

Those are both OBAP events. The Arlington, VA one is not quite correct and is actually in the area called National Harbor on the MD side of the bridge south of DC.

Quick question, can you live anywhere in the world and work for Atlas? Ie in Europe and commute to work? If so, they pay for a C class ticket?

I have heard conflicting answers so thanks in advance for any clarification!

Thanks!

Yes, you CAN live anywhere you want.

No, you are responsible to get to the US. ******** There are some VERY limited exceptions that a super senior pilot in seat could make work.

Not to be negative but that's got to be because so many have departed for other carriers. With as many OT trips that are out there right now, they must be way short on pilots. Even the outbase offerings are being filled as they once were.

I take that as a good sign. Folks are beginning to realize that outbasing as opposed to volunteer flying on days off is the same thing as offering to work for free. One can volunteer four or five days off and garner more pay than can be had for outbasing an entire month. Plus, the more folks that realize this and don't outbase, the more new blood we will need here. It's a win for those here and a win for those who would like to wander the planet with us!

If I'm not mistaken it's also because classes are no longer divided into 747 and 767 classes as well. I believe that you now bid for equipment once you get on property and the classes are combined. Still, that's a ton of pilots to hire in a month at Atlas....

It makes me wonder if some of the attrition rumors for the next 6 months are true!
