I don't know why everyone *****es about the air quality in Shanghai. When the cheapest pack of cigarettes is 4.5 RMB ($0.72) you should be chain smoking anyway.

All you have to do is crew rest Zhengzhou once. The air there makes Shanghai look like Aspen!

Things are moving here at Atlas. On the latest vacancy bid the junior 747 captain now has a hire date of 26 April 2010. 5 years and four months to captain in the whale is pretty good time!

2010? I thought it was 2008.

I think the junior Capt was a 2008 hire on the initial award, but atleast one change was driven by a person who had to turn down the upgrade due to a family situation. From looking at the seniority list it appears as if there was zero hiring between the class that started 7/30/08 and the class that started 4/26/10 so we went from '08 to 2010 as the junior 747 Capt as the changes happened.
