Hi!

Any sign of recalls to get the rest of the pilots back? I think there are about 25 still on furlough???

at atlas? i think so. once they get the passenger gig up and running, that should get the rest of the guys off the street at atlas. i believe it starts in the first quarter of 2010.....

I've flown 200 hours this whole year and never been extended!!!!!

They've got a pill for that now.

Jumped on ATLAS less than a week ago. They said to expect hiring next year.

Looks like Atlas is going to operate the classics thru the end of 2010. Two are in heavy checks.

Good info

Here's a link to an article concerning Atlas Air from the October issue of Air Transport World. It seems that Atlas is as well positioned to take advantage of any recovery as anyone out there.

Word from a friend working there is that they should be adding something like 7 airframes in 2010 and will hopefully be hiring around May or so.

Your "Friend" is either blowing somke or very high up, because that ain't even a rumor at Atlas.

As Paul Harvey used to say, "Stand by for.... News!"

I think things may be looking up.

I'm not sure all the rumors together would equal 7 airframes. But I admire the optimism.

since they closed STN have all the AABO/AACS folks been "made redundant" as they put it over there.

used to work there and basically quit because of the no travel to stn issue, but lucky for me, they changed it right after i left.

would like to get back maybe, been talking to D.B in puzzle palace and it was said no hiring for a year or more. due no attrition and people still out on furlough, made it sound like as soon as they fixed STN issue the revolving door just stopped and no one leaves now.

this is from nov/09 info

Does any of you Atlas or Polar drivers know what is going to happen to the hiring pool? I would assume their going to flush it!

Thanks in advance.
