Your right they haven't had any new classes but that has been known from previous announcements. Looking forward I would assume that training and hiring will continue.

I am looking through a curtain that is closed from the outside through a sliver of light.

If you are legally permitted to work in the US (Registered Alien/Greencard Holder) and hold a passport of any nationality you are an equal contender for a pilot position, providing everything else is in order.

No issues with the additional cost surrounding vetting for the training.

Great! Now I am just waiting for that phone to ring

Much gratitude to the several ABX and Southern Air pilots that were walking the picket line in NY yesterday. We are all in this fight together guys. Thanks for your support.

Latest I heard:

IF current attrition continues at the current rate, and programmed increase in airframes/flying pans out, we need to hire about 650 pilots over the next 2 years.

Probably our attrition will increase, and I think for sure we will have existing and new customers asking for lift above and beyond our planned increases, so I think the 650 numbers are the floor of new hires required.

Namaste...

Guess the numbers are in our favor for guys who want to get on there, hopefully I'll get an interview and will get hired.

Heard no classes (except the 6/27) until September

Just to be clear, you mean that after this upcoming class, there will not be another class until September? Is this from a reliable source?

Not true. 6/27 class, then every 3 weeks

Atlas needs ever person it can get through the training program right now. I don't believe it is physically possible for them to hired enough to Have the number of crews that scheduling would like for peak flying this year...

For the moment......we are overstaffed. They need to clear the training backlog before starting to hire all out again.

Are any new interviews even scheduled?
