So we got a 777?!?! Oh wait under Titan. It's being leased to AeroLogic? Anyone with a good grasp of what Titan is, please explain.

I'm pretty sure Titan is the leasing arm of AAWW. And AreoLogic is the joint venture operation of DHL and DLH. P.S. here's a link for titan: http://www.titanaviationltd.com/legal.asp FAJ |
baby steps....

I have Google Alerts set for Atlas, and woke up this morning to read "Atlas Air, B777F." Got my hopes up until I read further right and saw "Titan Leasing." Oh well... good for the bottom line at least. :D

Hey guys I got a call for the April 1st class. Best of luck to everyone interviewing and in the pool. Interesting news about the B777. Looking forward to joining this terrific company.
|
Is that a 747 class or 767 class?
|
I'm pretty sure it's the 74 class. Same one I'm in.
|
Congrats, guys! :)
Anyone know if there are any plans for a vacancy bid award on the 15th? As I understand it, they come out on the 15th of the month on an as-needed basis? |

Got the call for the April 1st 747 class as well!
Fortunately my swim in the pool lasted only 3 days. Great things are happening with this company, and I just feel fortunate to be joining the ranks. A huge thank you to all those who contributed to this thread. Good luck to those still hoping. Congratulations to all the fellow new hires. See you all at the iconic "grill", if it even exists! |

I can guarantee you the grill exists. Whether or not you use it is you to you and your Class. We've had a few nights at the grill that have ended early and a few others that end up in a cab. It's all up to you. Congrats and welcome. We'll still be here when you arrive.

After my seven trips to Thule I've stopped calling any weather in the contiguous US "cold", it's only "chilly"! This picture must have been taken in the late Spring. First, the sun is up; and second, I never saw the ocean thawed when I was there! http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...ase_above.jpeg |
Thule is actually very cool.
Painted runway, "30 days of night", I was constantly looking for vampires, feeling like a rock star at the bar (we were the only crew in there for a good amount of time), not as cold as Manas, but cold nonetheless. |

Did anyone ever teach the folks at Dundas how to cook a burger without completely drying it out by flipping and pressing over, and over, and over? Oh, well... It's still the most interesting stamp in my passport. |
Quick question: What is the monthly guarantee for a first year guy at Atlas flying 74s? (Not sure if its different during the probation period) thank you
|
50 hours per month

Training pay is $1600 per month (plus per diem while in MIA and on OE) until completion of OE or 4 months whichever happens first. Thereafter min. guarantee is 50 hours per month at $75.75 ($77.27 starting Sept. 2013). This pay continues until you go on second year pay which will be the first day of the month you were hired (I was hired on May 30 and effectively had only 11 months of first year pay). This first year pay is the same for 74 and 76 pilots. Most first year folks see much more than the 50 hour min. each month. Once I started OE I averaged about 72 hours - YMMV so you should really only count on the 50 hours and reap any additional hours as a bonus. Prior to starting class you might want to consider doing some reading about Atlas; the schedules, the pay, the lifestyle, and especially the training program. Doing so may help your transition into the company. Many pilots do this while prepping for the interview. BTW, answers to your question can be found earlier in this thread and/or two clicks away in the APC airline profiles ... http://www.airlinepilotcentral.com/a...ter/atlas.html |
Cobbs, from the way you worded your question I guess you're not interested in the 76? The 767 also has a 50 hour guarantee the first year, then 62 after your first year is complete. :D:rolleyes:
Edit: Wow, you're already hired and didn't know this...nevermind. |

I knew I would take some flak by asking a question like this...haha Despite being 99.9 percent sure, I wanted to ask again. (Trying to buy a house...the banks have new rules in effect) Thank You all for the info, I really appreciate it.
|
All a bank or finance company will count is guarantee x rate. They will disregard per diem...and even if you can show "over guarantee" pay from the past they will say there is NO guarantee of that.....if you need to show income best to wait until you are on year two.
|
Also for Cobbs, you will not start receiving your per diem until the end of the second month you are in training. I started in early January and did not see a per diem check until the end of February due to the way Atlas reconciles pay. Plan accordingly especially depending on what health and 401K options you choose. I saw some rather small checks for the first two months.
|
Wow, good stuff to consider....Thank You

cobbs - Were you non-current when you got picked up? I saw the AF staff job and I am sitting in one myself. Haven't heard of a single non-current pilot being hired and am looking for hope. Thanks.

Just saw today's group finely-dressed candidates in the Training Center...for those that are curious, ALL were wearing ties, most in suits, and a couple in blazers and slacks...but ALL in ties.
So, can we put that one to bed?!!:D:rolleyes: |

He only referenced two in the group wearing pants so...

Donkey,
Sorry to be a dream killer, but I was current despite the Staff Job. The AF sent me downrange as a MC-12 guy. The MC-12 (KingAir 350) gave me a 'free' ATP, 700hrs, and most important recency of experience. |

Edit: Wow, you're already hired and didn't know this...nevermind. Not to pick on Cobb, but it's posts like this that has me scratching my head about the HR dept. Some others who have just submitted and get called? Just another frustrated ACMI-dawg patiently waiting. BTW, congrats Cobb, good luck! |
Not really a hiring question but I'm a new guy about to start OE and I have ATL as my gateway - just wondering if anyone knows of good (cheap) place to park around the airport since I'll have to drive to ATL to start my trips.
Thanks Guys. PS I did read this whole thread prior to being hired and it was invaluable - and I don't remember this question being asked:-) |
