Hi all, I have been very interested in joining Atlas and have been lurking in here for a while. I extremely appreciate all the info and contributions by long- and recent-timers alike. It has been very helpful, and has mostly made me more excited about the prospect of getting on.
I know of pilots going from B1900 straight into the 747, at Atlas even, and a good friend recently went from Twin Otter to 777 at Purple and is doing great. However, this is the first time I have seen this sort of thing regarding Atlas...
I have 7800+ hours, been with a foreign ACMI company (turboprop) for the last 10 years, but have previous 121 time from the early 2000s including DHC-8. Certainly no heavy international time. And, honestly, I have been out of the US system for a long time. Should I be concerned?
I have no desire for the legacies, as the schedules and commuting would not really work for me at all, and I am used to and prefer having chunks of work followed by chunks of time off. Kalitta is the only other company I am considering at the moment.
Thanks again for the thousands of contributions, which I have combed through most of over the last few months.

I just finished up with the 737 training last month. Plan on being in Miami for 90 days. The training is broken down like this. 1 Week indoc, 1 week Ground school. 1 week of CBTs and the rest of the time are simulators with the Oral and Type ride. Once you finish up your type you still have 4 Sim sessions left.
