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?

 

[skypine69]

Its Cliff...it must be true.

 

[CommanderHoek]

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.

 

[CommanderHoek]

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!

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.

 

[atpcliff]

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.
