I believe that ATLAS has been an ALPA carrier for some time now and I see no reason that these guys should get fired or even demoted. Sim check and what ever the FAA has in mind will be more than adequate assuming there are not other problems hiding in their folders.

Certainly don't recall TWA firing the Capt that landed his 707 at the wrong airport in Ohio many years ago.

Because I was working there at the time I remember that case well. He was sent back to the F/O seat for 18 months followed by a tough upgrade back to captain training situation. But, after the 18 months he made it fine.
