Hey Tim, I'm just a poolie but I'll take a crack at this one. During my interview we had a Q and A session with a fellow from Atlas Crew Scheduling. Someone asked him a question similar to yours, and he mentioned a scenario they recently had where a pilot was living in Tyler, Tx and commuting out of DFW, but wanted to use the small airport in Tyler as his gateway. The travel desk looked at it, determined the Tyler airport had sufficient service, and added it to the list. He said that in general, if there are at least two airlines that have service to a given city, it's likely to be eligible for gateway.

Looks like they are adding cities fairly regularly, my older copy of the contract doesn't show ILM our OAJ on the list.

Best of luck man!

pflt & Wano, thanks for the feedback fellas.

anyone know if Family members can non-rev (if it's called non-rev) on Atlas flights?

Most cargo airlines lost that privilege after 9/11...and that includes Atlas. Our program was very good, and many took their spouses to amazing places. We could not take them while working on a trip (had to be on days off) but still was a great way to travel. I took my misses to Italy for a week...great time.

On the nonrev topic, I have seen in the various posts that id90 is available. My current airline agreements for this is pretty extensive. Is this true at Giant as well (i.e. American, United, JetBlue, Southwest, Air France, etc.) ?

Many thanks...got the vm to do a phone interview. 3 years of staying in the game. Written test last week and hit an 87...did not want to raise the bar too high. Humbled.

Miami on the 9th. Many thanks for the inputs on this forum. When I come back I will post notes on process/results.

Email for interview invitation/confirmation included:

Fill out the application and EEOO form, forward on to appropriate individuals... Suggest you stay at these hotels.... directions to our building.... 0715 beginning... all-day affair...

"NOTE: You are NOT required to bring your logbooks."

-----------------------
Questions for the forum:

#1) Confirmation email did NOT include info on dress code. I've seen "don't wear a tie" on the forum only. I am prepping for full business suit environment.

#2) No response from HR to confirm what "logbooks not required" means. Does this mean 1) not necessary to bring all your original/hard-copy logbooks, or 2) not necessary to bring any flight records at all?

Have other interview candidates gotten confirmation on #1) and #2)?

Bragging about your test score and how you missed a few to keep the bar low. Followed by "humbled". Haha. I love it.

Interviewed April 29th
Every person interviewing wore a suit.
No one brought their log books.

1) Wear a suit. Everyone else will.

2) Don't bring your logbooks/flight records/etc. Bring exactly what the email tells you to bring. No more, no less.

Good luck!

Treehorn, actually the humbled comment had nothing to do with the test score, just life events. I actually thought my test was low compared to some recent posters ( high 90's, mid 90's). There have been some who knocked it out of the park... I wasn't one of them.

If I offended you or anyone w/that comment, not my intent. At the same time, I was happy my 3 years of study and a small band of crm friends helped. Everyone's past comments really helped preparing for the test.
