Unfortunately it looks like all that will be left of Polar Air Cargo is their 400s. Atlas doesn't need nor want any of the other aircraft. As stated in the previous post, they are mostly junk. If the need for a 200 came up I'm sure it would be one of the recently parked Atlas aircraft that would be put on the contract. Ultimately I think the plan will be to operate the company with solely the 747-400s.

It's a shame it has to end this way, there are lots of good people there and I wish them all the best of luck.
