Hi everone,
I'm flying the 777 in the Middle East at the moment but eyeing a move to Atlas. I see that the 74 and 76 both have JFK as a base, how junior is this base? Would it be possible to get it right out the gate?
Also, could anyone give an example about recent schedules on the 74 and 76, JFK based. I see in the ad that its max 17 days working. Is that normally 6 on 5 off-ish?
Thanks!

Seems that the failure rate in the training center is setting records, Terminations are resulting since these are occurring during probationary years (UQE's) and the Union can't step in to help in those cases.
The lack of AQP, and the fast tempo high workload "PC" is overloading pilots coming up on that first check. The lack of seat time, the lack of hands on flying for a year is taking out a large number of 1-2 year pilots due to the loss of flying skills!
On the other front, the Union is getting notified daily of MULTIPLE Article 19 hearings asking for terminations and letters in files.
Pilots commenting to other pilots regarding vaccination status etc should be avoided and not worth getting into a tiff over, unless your sole goal is to get terminated after an Article 19 hearing.
The new pilots seem to be forgetting that the company IS NOT THEIR FRIEND in these matters, and instead of approaching the Professional Standards committee
go VFR direct to the company. The company historically whacks everyone involved with a hearing even the REPORTING crewmember...
The turnover of the new hires in the past 24 months is the highest percentage of pilots leaving, involuntarily and to a point voluntarily if only to keep their files clear of a letter by tendering a resignation ahead of a letter being placed in their permanent file.
May the odds ever be in your favor...

I don't know their individual immigration status, but I've met many South Africans while in training.
Maybe they have green cards already, idk, but I was surprised by how many I ran into during initial training in Miami.
