Anyone who would come to any ACMI until they have some major labor relations improvements must be very uneducated in the ACMI sector! Please do us all a favor and go somewhere you will be respected for your skills!

You can work for half the pay of other Rebel Scum(ACMI pilots) and give them dirty looks while in an undisclosed Middle Eastern country. Then you can argue with the handler that you don’t need to be in uniform because you called travel, who informed you that you can enter on a tourist visa. Then you can argue again with the handler and the uniformed ACMI pilot that it’s really much easier to just put your uniform shirt on and come with us. Then you can watch the handler and the Rebel Scum pilot (in uniform) that you purposely ignored and stank eyed, breeze through immigration and into an awaiting big body Benz and drive off into the sunset. Atlas crew on the Lufthansa flight. Are you guys still at the airport? I can send the S class back for you.

Or you could become a professional writer if the airline flying doesn’t work out.

Sorry Man. Atlas has rubbed most of us the wrong way on various levels. If I were under 55, at a regional with no flow through and I wanted something different, I would absolutely go to Atlas. They’ll get a contract soon enough. I think you could make a career there and you would enjoy it if you like diverse flying and Boeings. They got you a ticket for your interview? I came from SE Asia on my own dime...
