So you have a helicopter for a crew van instead of a, well, van? I bet that helps with traffic issues.

With gateway basing, if you live outside of the 130 mile crew base radius Atlas buys airline tickets; Within the 130 miles, you take the chopper to work.

I liked the magic mirror. Look straight into it, and there's no reflection.

I guess that explains the color palette.

There is no reflection because Atlas freight pilots sleep in coffins during daylight and only appear at night to fly under the full moon...

When you and your 50 closest House of Saudi friends want to dine in style.....the choice is obvious!

Truth be known, that's the biggest motivator for us to be on time. We want to get in the hotel room with the curtains drawn before the sun comes up.

Too Cool. OK. That's GOT to be in our next contract! If for no other reason than the geezers will need it when they arrive at the plane in their Hover-rounds and Rascals ...
