Steam what?!? I don't have any idea what you're talking about.

Follow the magenta line.

For those of you asking about Atlas schedules do a search in this forum, I posted an explanation not too long ago.

Magenta lines are for sissys!

Nine waypoints at a time baby!!! The only way to fly!

EXACTLY!

Having only ever flown steam gauges and with 20 hours of FMA 900 time I got to say, I'm really digging the magenta lines!

I'm just busting Whales chops. Besides, you don't "fly" an airbus, you just read the paper.

Hey XXX Buses Rule!!!!!!!! NOT!

Depends upon the Airbus, my man. There is one model out there that is chock full o' steam gauges...

Back to the Polar / Atlas stuff.....

I understand Polar began another New Hire 747-400 class today and Atlas began a mixed class of -400 and -200 new hires today. Sounds like they still plan on running new hire classes every two weeks for the rest of the year. I have also heard they just upped the number of new hires needed at Polar significantly.

 

[Whale Rider]

I heard 50+ guys hired on the Polar side so far. With another 50 or so by Summer.

Atlas Air Hiring

Just spoke to a buddy who works at our training facility @MIA, and says that they are doing interviews and sim evaluations today. We're adding more people to the candidate pool!

 

[Xfr8dog]

Where do you guys do your training? I assume with that number being hired you must have your own sim?

Training is done for both Atlas/Polar at MIA and we do have our own sims. However (Don't know if they still do) we used to farm out some sim work to NATCO and United

 

[furloughfodder]

The newest -400 classes (on the Polar side at least) are headed to DEN for training, the MIA sims are booked solid.

Job Fair

How are most guys getting intervews with Polar/Atlas?

If it's through job fairs, does anyone know when/where Polar/Atlas will be attending next?

Thanks.

As far as I know you email your resume to [email protected] I was at the school house and they are interviewing TONS and TONS of pilots!

Having prior Airbus experience is a plus......with the A-380 order coming up.

Don't know about the A380, but the 747SF are coming in a couple years and maybe............................777F

 

[Rottweiller]

Can anyone give an idea of what your average month maybe ie. days off, amount of flying etc. Also if / when you get hired do you get to choose whether you go to Atlas or Polar or are you placed by company, they seem to have different payscales not to mention fleet types.

I don't mind the UK (been based there before) but with a commute etc this could mean you are basically away almost 24/7 right?

Thanks

Does anyone at Atlas know if Capt Mike Schultz still works at the airline? I'd like to send him an email but don't how to get it to him, thanks.
