Does the occasion ever arise to Gateway travel ON an Atlas aircraft to your base? I understand the general unlikelihood of such a possibility, unless you lived at a DHL regularly-scheduled city pair.

You want to have a pilot not leave. Hire him at 50+, not a young 20-30 something with no PIC.

Sure, I used it when based in ANC to get home usually. The flights arrive sometimes its too late to get a commercial flight out. So one can stay on the aircraft and ride through to CVG and then commercial home.

Other than not getting your freaky flier miles, it's a lot nicer than flying on the cattle cars in many ways. Usually.
Although, I have to say that it is not too unusual to end up on an Emirates A-380 or a Qatar A350 in Business Class from the Middle East coming home and I guess that's a little nicer than the upper deck of our old 744's...

Dutch- Great example! I live in L.A., hoping to get on the 74. In researching schedules to ANC for gateway purposes, I found them to be preferable to a CVG commute. It's great that there was a through flight to CVG for you.
DC8- Sounds like a nice accomodation on the mideast carriers. Can't wait to give the A350 a try.
To the regular APC contributors- I want to express my appreciation for all the wisdom and guidance you espouse to us characters. It will be an honor and privilege to serve with you when I get my call.
