Oh my apologies - I didn't realise this forum was only for keyboard warrior wankers like yourself to voice their shi$$y opinion.

I was under the impression it was a place where people could share information, maybe get some guidance or even ask a simple question.

Sorry about that.

We have Australians here with about 2 years on property. We are likely to hire Australians again. Apply and see what happens?

Russel,
Keyboard warrior wankers? Someone is a little defensive. This subject has been mentioned numerous times on APC and PPrune. If you bothered to look around you would find it. I would guess by your very short posting history that it would take far to long to search for your own answers.

Do you have an FAA ATP? Do you have any US part 121 time? If you do your in the running. If not, go rant somewhere else.

Well to put some wanker perspective on this topic, I flew with one of our Aussie hired visa kids that was out of status and could not leave the US because immigration would not let him back into the US. So Atlas managements solution was to build him (a 747 pilot) a US domestic only schedule, month after month after month, while the rest of us schmucks drag our butts around the globe. So yes.... Aussie Aussie Aussie. Come on down you are welcome here.

I just hope the person was grateful for Atlas accommodating them like that.

Hi can someone give more information on the company paid commuting on how it works . If I was to live in Orlando does the company provide a ticket to where your base ?? And what airports in Florida are consider as gateway travel . Not sure how this works.

Also I’m currently on the B777 in the middle
east what are the chances of getting the 777 or do new hires go straight on the 74 ? Thanks

Some trips start with a deadhead from your base to the plane, but you can usually get a ticket from, say, MCO to the plane without going to base first. This is more common on 747 and 777 I believe.

If you live in Orlando, you’ll have no problem getting a ticket out of Orlando. They also have TPA, DAB, JAX, MIA, SRQ, PNS, TLH, MLB, etc in Florida in case you decide to move.

If you have the WB international experience, I’m sure it won’t be too hard to get 777. It comes down to what they need but they’ll take your preference into consideration since I think they have a need for everything except 737.
