You're all set then! Good luck to you!
Ive read ace the technical and everything explained. Even have done extreme in depth research of the company. Including things on this post. I have read just about every page on this thread. I am just making sure I leave no stone unturned. Im studying to the point that I am even studying in my sleep brotha. Its game time, and im bringing my A game. Im looking to make a career out of this. Dont care to go to the majors and never gave a hoot to fly pax. Boxes dont scream. I know that a small portion of Atlas does pax charter. This is right up my alley. Hotels and airports is what im looking for..
Goodluck everyone!!!!

I've been playing galley master behind two new hires doing OE this week. They were both April hires.

IAH is almost all PAX flying.
My worst legs/trips have been cargo legs, due to a variety of problems.
However, unless you are at IAH and doing the 8 working days to get 90+ hour deal, you will be flying a lot less PAX than at the Legacy carriers.
For the right person, I think Atlas is a really good place to work.

Wow! That is fast. I got that email but chose to delay taking the test. Good luck this week. How long many hours you study before taking the test?

EVERY pilot at Atlas is a PAX pilot. If you are very senior, you could bid a base where there is no PAX flying, and if your schedule changes to make you fly PAX, you can scream at scheduling and probably avoid it. If you are junior, you will fly PAX. About half my current pattern was pax (Hajj pilgrims).

In 5 1/2 years I've done three pax flights. That was while being based in JFK. One needs to pay attention to the flights on the bidlines. I bid my days off footprint first. Then I go back through and throw everything with a 747Y (code for pax flight) out of the pool. The three pax flights I did wind up with were the result of being tagged in mid pattern.
