Atlas retired its last Classic today :bawling:

With the current price of oil and the maintenance expense on the Classics, it is probably a good thing. Unfortunately, it cost some great guys flying on the panel their jobs which sucks.

Now delayed another week to February 20th according to DHL Scheduling.

Looks like the middle of March now.

Yesterday (March 12), was the first day of flying the 767-200 for DHL. It flew out of CVG. We are scheduled to get one a month for the next four months as these airplanes come out of mx in Isreal. The next 747-8 should show up on May 23rd.

I don't know how much correlation Atlas has with a China play on investments, but this article is still an interesting commentary on the company's current state.

Atlas just started ramping up the hiring again. The latest is the pool to be drained by Fall, 2012.
Taking delivery of new airplanes throughout the year.

Any idea when Atlas will have the email address up again to accept resumes?

 

[atpcliff]

I would guess it's when they see the timeframe that the pool will be totally drained.

Do you have a source for the "draining the pool by fall" information or is that just a connecting-the-dots best guess?
