Who's got the scoop on Evergreen?

[embpic1]

I think so! Who did you work for?

Great Lakes.

I am at Kalitta now.

So do Evergreen, Gemini, Atlas, Polar, Kalitta, ATI, and I am sure there are more, all fly the same work? I am trying to sort out all the names on the tails I see on the Cargo ramps. I thought ATI was Evergreen b/c they seemed parked together in PHL (and I thought they used to fly douglas products) and some other cities. Are they all ACMI? I know a guy just hired at ATI and another who was turned down, but I think he is going to Gemini. Also another couple are off to Kalitta. I am curious as to how people feel all these cargo operators stack up? Best - Worst? Just seems like a good bit of hiring/turnover at all these places.

It is.

Some folks find a home with the ACMI operators, others use it for a stepping stone or a learning experience.

I have been with several as well as with commuters and majors, etc.

Not a bad lifestyle or paycheck if ya get on with the right one...Start a life with a scum-bag ACMI and you will be miserable soon after the big-airplane glory has worn off....And it will..

Thanks

LCF is the contract to fly the sections of the 787 around for Boeing. Custom 744's I think. A friend at Evergreen told me about it, but we were drinking fairly heavily at the time.
