actually, JD just said on Tuesday’s web call that there are currently no plans to bring the BCFs out of storage.

Sounds like my info was bad. I didn't understand how we could crew any more aircraft...doesn't seem like we have enough for the airframes we are flying now...

No plans to execute is correct, but they have obviously kept it in their sights as the momentum of cargo requirements increases due to the outbreak impacts and lack of pax carrier belly cargo availability. It was verbally stated they are monitoring the situation as they know they can pull them out if needed. Some immediately available, others with a little more lead time. At this time customer needs are being met.

Crews, that would be a concern.

If you got your false info from a certain someone on GC then you should’ve known better to trust his info as it is almost always false.

We can’t handle all the flying. Not enough crews- we probably need another 25% ASAP, and our training dept isn’t able to handle that.

Crews self quarantining, and be locked down doesn’t help their situation either.

More planes, sure- but that equals much more crews- maybe even 3x than normal.

IMO company needs a CBA even more- to motivate the crews.

might not have the crews at the moment but there are more than likely about 800 new apps that just dropped in Atlas' lap in the last week since TSA and Compass both announced they are shutting down the beginning of April. I know hiring and training will take a while but if demand stays high i'm sure the classes at Atlas will start filling up.

P.S. check you PM if you have a minute for a question.

I’d come to ATI rather than Atlas, Brown, purple right now.

Wasn't April Fool's yesterday?

But 4/20 is just around the corner....

Well played. "Duuuuuuuude, we're TOTALLY gettin bought by AM-azon."
