How did you apply? Is it send a resume and cross your fingers? A ten page application online? Or is it drop by at freight dawg hours and drop a resume off?

If Evergreen is going to replace the LCF's one for one, they better hustle. Word is, Atlas will be operating them sooner than the Sep-Oct '10 time frame.

Unless I'm missing something, it's still a -400 type and it's still an airplane. We're going to get qualified on the -8 in a three day class, the LCF can't be that different. Unpressurized cargo compartment, P&W motors, a little different air conditioning, some camera's, and a little more drag, OK, a lot more drag. With our new sim, the numbers from Boeing get plugged in and it fly's like an LCF one flight and a -8 the next.

Look, Evergreen went from never flying a -400 to operating them just fine. We've got over 12 years of -400 experience on the maintenance and operations side. Maybe, worst case, a one week class at Boeing for the maintenance guys.

BTW, we're getting numbers from Boeing that say you were ontime 93% of the time, not the 100% posted on some forums. Heck, we beat that with our classics on the AMC flying.

Good luck talk to me in a year or so and let me know how its going for ya. evergreen guys put alot of time and effort to make this lcf work, and ya see how far that got us.

There's a rumor going around that 40 plus furlough notices went out yesterday. If true, sorry to hear that, really sucks. Is this more a negotiating ploy, or were that many guys set up against the LCF's?

BTW, sounds like Atlas will pick up one LCF in July.

I am 3 from the bottom of the list. There has been no mention of a furlough. I just got emailed my travel arrangements to the simulator for next week. The Singapore 400 will be online in the next couple weeks and there are 2 Air France birds in the pipeline. Unless everything hits the fan in the next few weeks, I think you will see another new hire class before you see a furlough.

Sorry for the bad info and undue stress. It came from an ex-Zoner, still talking to current Zoners.

Evergreen guys/gals!

Could you guys help out and take any picture of UPS cans/freight onboard your aircraft? PM me if you need more info.
