Point well taken and my condolences to you. The only silver lining is that you have not needed to start over at some other airline. Atlas is my 4th and last airline, starting over sucks !!!

Only training schedulers are on 36th in Miami. Crew schedulers are in Purchase N.Y.

Actually, Bryson's is one 36th St. operation that I respect!

How did this thread turn into another Atlas rant! All our airlines are bottom feeders just with different fleet types. We are all hourly paid workers, some with more seniority than others which only means they have put up with the BS longer or have not found a better job.
The owners are the only millionaires in the game.

I am a Atlas pilot that came from a so called 36th street company and in my opinion if your not UPS of FEDEX we are all 36th street companies that are trying to get in bed with DHL. So lets welcome Florida West to the DHL party!
