Found a scrap of info on AV Canada about Atlas and E3s. Couldn't get through to Gecko Aviation to verify details. An Atlas new hire on APC said 70% of his new-hire class were Aussies on E3s (didn't say how big the class was):

https://geckoaviation.com/atlas-air-cur ... nHg8cJlcx8" Atlas are in the process of including the license conversion into their training, meaning sponsorship will be open to non FAA/ATP holders! So, stay tuned into Gecko for any updates."

Now that will be even more interesting... offer a US visa and pay for US FAA conversion? I'm sure some who have an FAA license now will apply, but I bet lots will flock when they throw in a free conversion
