Any "Latest & Greatest" About Atlas?

Its Cliff...it must be true.

Cliff, you are a jackass! Plain and simple. You know nothing of the DC-8 and make a stupid comment based on what you saw on a webpage??? You truly are a remarkable moron. More like an idiot savant. Firstly, Stars Away is an alright operation. They have two very decent DC-8's and have European approval. Never heard of them and you write anyway. I cannot believe you man. Years of your rubbish on this board as if you are in the know. YOU DO NOT KNOW! Please find another hobby you clown.

Oh and btw, I was trying to help the DHL/Astar guys. Stay out of it.

Had to post this hear to make sure he reads it. Cliff If I were you and on probation/new hire at Atlas, I would be very careful posting info on this board mate. I thought you would have learned by now but you have not!

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.

I'm curious,

How do you know this information? I've been at Atlas for many years and they don't tell me anything. Are you friends with people in management or something? Just curious..thx

 

[skypine69]

Have you been paying attention? Cliff knows it all....do not question him.

If you want more details, PM me....or you can just read other's posts on the topic on various message boards...they are all saying about the same thing.

Speaking of a horses rear-end. You sir are completely classless! Do us all a favor and disappear!

 

[CommanderHoek]

Is it classless to call someone when you know they are full of it? I am not the only one who thinks this btw. And bahumba, its not about you so bugger off mate. I get why you are defending Cliff though. Makes perfect sense!

Your response is about as stupid as the rest of your rants.

You obviously have not met Cliff and had to spend 5 minutes with him...let alone a 14 hour flight.

Yada yada yada.... How about we get back to the title of this thread. None of this sniping is of any value to anyone trying to find out info about Atlas hiring.

 

[JonnyKnoxville]

Anyone hear if the 747-8 is performing better / the same / or worse than expected?

 

[Talon757]

I haven't flown it yet but word is that it's great to fly...so great in fact with that super wing that it doesn't want to come down. Boards are usually needed. It sips fuel. On the down side the cockpit is has more noise than the -400. That's from the air conditioning sytem and a fix is on the way. More cargo, better fuel economy = happy customers. That's the bottom line!

 

[727C47]

i hope to fly it one day, parked next to a brand new one at ELLX, a beautiful ship.

New Hire 747 class of 12 on July 23 is the rumor.

Are these guys coming from a pool? There are a lot of furloughed and current 74-4 guys that are also teamsters who could be there with little to no heads-up.

All ya got to do is call. Maybe your EXCO could talk your management into giving preferential calls to the World pilots.

Good luck to all!

[maxcackel]

Yes they are coming out of our pool. I'm sure the World guy's would be welcome but everyone must apply and interview then either offered a class or given a pool letter.
I'm pretty sure the EXCO's are talking and aware of the situation.

As discussed, these guys are from the pool. However, I am sure we would love to have the experience from the World pilots that are interested in coming over when we start interviewing again. I am not sure how involved our union is in the hiring and selection process but I will place a call to my union leadership about it.

Thank you!

I know there will be a lot of appreciative fellow Teamsters pilots.

Hiring is ramping up, and resumes will be accepted soon.

I just met a UPS Pilot. They had been based in both SDF and ANC, and had been jumpseating on Atlas for the last two years. This pilot said that Atlas was THE best flying job.
