Congrats to all the recent pools and new hires.

I'm submitting my application this week. 7200TT, all civilian 135/121. Currently flying 737.

I do have acquaintances at Atlas, but no one I've actually flown with. Does anyone know if it's a plus to list one (or more) of these folks on the PAQ?

Call/email the people as ask if you can put them down. It doesn't ask if you flew with them. You will be asked in the interview how you know them.

New member here,

Can anyone point me in the direction of the link with all of the Atlas info? I remember someone posting it, saying to get a cup of coffee and read it.

Can't find it anymore.

Thanks

BTW,

I saw it before I was a member, so I couldn't look at it. It may be this whole thread for all I know.

Thanks

Ding, ding, ding, we have a winner...but Heavy, you stole my thunder.

All forgiven if you buy me a beer while you are in Miami!!

As for everyone on the outside looking in...read the whole damn thing. Please do yourself a favor, and get to it...you are gonna do a disservice to you and your family if you take this job, without all that is presented in the last 450 pages.

Name your brand, and it will be my pleasure to hand deliver it at the first opportunity.

Precisely. What's worse, if you take this job without understanding what it entails and subsequently bail because this life just isn't for you then you have wasted a slot that could have been filled by someone who HAS done their homework and would have been a good fit. Please note well what 747 driver and others of us have said here and gather the facts on this thread. It's all there for the reading.
