Seems the new process is to first invite you to the online assessment (100 question test) and those ARE going out right now. Most likely they are preparing for interview classes soon.

So how the heck does this work. Saw an Atlas plane in Tianjin (China).... Operating as 'Qantas operated by Atlas'..... So let me get this straight, its a US registered airplane, operating for an Australian carrier in China....?

That flight was a charter, not for Qantas, but using one of the aircraft normally dedicated to the QF contract. Sometimes the customer (Qantas, Etihad, etc) book the charter, sometimes its another customer contracting directly with Atlas.

I've been old in a class and had a high last four in another. I would say the least discriminatory method is just to draw a name from a hat. No one does that. My most recent class I was 5 of 14 and after 10 years I'm #1 of 2 remaining. My point is it changes and it is only among 10-12 guys so in the grand scheme of things it may not matter as much as we worry about.

As an outsider watching this thread for some time, it seems something must be stirring in Miami. Info flow slowed after the summer and has been fairly minimal since the pipeline stopped back in Sep timeframe. Good luck to all applying.

Okay, I've got one...
DHL cargo on board a 767-300F in DHL colors, flying an airplane owned by DHL, but on the Atlas AOC, on a Polar route authority, with Atlas crews, and a Polar callsign...
Confused?...me too!!
