I have read a couple different answers on this huge thread, but what is the story with the MIA base? I live down this way so if I was able to get picked up I would prefer to eventually be down here. As of today is it senior? junior? thanks

MIA has been fairly senior, but there has been a lot of movement lately so it's going a little more junior these days.
MIA is only a 74 base and the most junior 74 FO was hired 04/22/13 and has 78 pilots below him.

Is Atlas going to do the right thing and give preferential hiring to the ABX crews sure to be furloughed as the result of their local 1224 "brothers" underbidding and "stealing" ABX's flying?

There are some pages that have a key explaining what previous info is available on which pages. Lot of info on the test here. The test is not easy. Just heard from an experienced pilot who was very gung ho on Atlas...he failed the test.

Wow, are you just trolling these boards to do what you just did?!!

See SVA402's perfect answer to your jab...shame, shame.

It is great to see growth at one's own outfit...but NEVER at the cost of jobs at another. At least, not from a working stiff's point of view. However, management is usually not burdened by how their decisions affect real families with real problems.

Our seniority list, from top to bottom, is filled with pilots from every failed, failing, furloughing, etc airline out there...so, please don't think for a minute that the Union will not take every step necessary to get these guys on board...especially since we are in the same IBT Local.
