Thanks White Cap, I wish I could accept the 767! QOL commuting out of ANC seems like it would be pretty awful. Correct me if I am wrong here but it would essentially be 18 or 19 days of work and 11 or 12 days off. Am i off base?

Can you bid into the 47 after being place on the 67 or is there a seat lock and if so what's the duration?

Three year seat lock

Thanks GPILOT.

Currently a regional FO with ~200hrs SIC and 1700TT. Just turned 23 and within 6 months of finishing a bachelors degree. Anyone with these qualifications getting interviews?

This is straight from Atlas careers page:

Atlas Air First Officer Minimum Requirement:
The First Officer minimum requirements below have changed to include restricted ATP holders.
FAA Multi-Engine Airline Transport Pilot Certificate or Restricted Multi-Engine Airline Pilot Certificate

* 2000 hours of total time
* 500 hours turbine
or
* 1500 TT
* Graduate of 141, 142 or US Military Training Program
* Holds an SIC/PIC Type Rating in a Turbojet Aircraft

* Current FAA Class 1 Medical Certificate
* FCC Radio License
* Legally authorized to work in the United States
* No restrictions on international travel
* Current Passport
* Ability to pass a 10-year security background check and a pre-employment drug test

Warm body? Yes. Welcome to hell.

Atlas in my opinion is all about perspective. Is it Delta, FedEx, UPS..? No. Of course not. Will it be one day? Maybe, but highly unlikely.

Atlas is however world's better than almost any part 135, most regionals, and almost any other long-haul carrier such as Omni, Western Global, Kalitta, ABX, ...

So in the end, if you're coming from an easy job that paid you a ton to do hardly anything, or you think this is UPS or Delta for some reason.....you probably won't enjoy it here. Now if you came from a crappy freight company that worked you like a dog for pennies....you'll likely love it here. Perspective.

Amen!
