Air Atlanta hiring +200 pilots?

[Cirrus698]

Does anyone know what is happening at Air Atlanta?

I've heard a rumour that they are going to hire at least 200 pilots before next summer.

I know that they have upcoming deal with Lufthansa, but if these figures are correct there must be something else going on.

Where are they going to find +200 pilots?
Are they going to offer something more than $175 a day in an effort to aquire these pilots? :ooh:

This true.
Most leaving an many to soon resign.
If you seek a job no schedule. no time off and to bust every CAA/Jar duty apply.
If wish to fly illegal airaraft not within DDPG standards then go for it.
If you want anything defect etc written in log book, forget it.
Might lose contract.If you see an wish family to travel on aircraft say NO, not today, not yesterday, not tomorrow.

You start at 175 day.
Ask pilots that screwed been their many years.
New contract pay reduction.
Best keep licence in pocket, only manner of time.

Quote From O'Springer:
Do you really expect me to honor your contract Laddie!
Its just paper my boy.
What I promised just in Jest!
You know me by now, do you not.
I am Frank Lorenzo lost twin brother.
Can I have some of those neat little: No Lorenzo stickers that they made for him posted all over the world about me? You know the guy who destroyed Eastern Airlines.
As my American cousin Bill would say: No I did not have sex with that woman and thats not what it says in your contract!

WHY BOTHER ???

I would not consider a single second sending my CV to this cockroaches shack !

And Lufthansa utilizing them is a shame !

The real question is: How long will they be used by Lufthansa??? My guess is after about a month or so, it will be SNAFU. Trying to put 10lbs into a 5 lb bag.
