Anyone who knows anything about ACMI knows Atlas is the cream of the crop!

All I can say is that I'm happy here. You'd have to pry me out with a crowbar. It's pretty much just like what I loved most about flying C-141s but without the tents and MREs.

Ask the guys where they spent their lovely nights in Afghanistan when the jet broke!!

Hint...it was a tent, so don't be so sure that you'll never be in a tent ever again. Even at Atlas, it may happen...but not very often.

I'm going to save my comments until my employment is up with Omni in 11 days. I'll just say that Omni is what it is, and I'm glad I got the opportunity to go build heavy international time. Fantastic pilot group, too. They will be missed.

But...guess where I'm leaving Omni for?

Thank you.

Tent is OK sometimes at Atlas.

Thank you.

Please choose for poll.

Where are the Omni guys on the seniority list doing the 762 between LAS-HNL? That seems like the best gig in the system there.

Very senior on the captain side, very junior on the F/O side.

Thank you. Looking forward to friendship.

You will hear this over and over.

If you do not have an offer from both why ask?
If you are willing to work for either, assuming only 1 offers you a job then certainly apply to both and take the first offer. If you get a subsequent offer from the other then you and only you can decide based on your personal set of circumstances, where you live or want to live. Schedules verses pay potential growth, new airplane firm orders etc, etc etc.
These Who should I work for Poles are usually meaningless as most who ask these questions do not have an offer from either.

Sorry, I don't mean to sound brash, but Just saying.......
