[QUOTE=Brakerider;11398639]Any ideas why? I did hear there’s a big backlog.[
My thoughts are a combination of things, interest rates rising, post pandemic boom taking a breather, backlog of pilots to train.
In a years time all could change

Remember that E-3's are to fill gaps, if there are fewer or smaller gaps then those visas will slow too.
As with anything aviation, procrastinating when the sun shines might mean you get caught out in the rain.

Last point partly true. The rest isn't.
They have a heap of courses on backlog to get through, with the training department at capacity. Each carrier can only employ a certain number of E3's, Atlas is already at 18% in terms of this.

[QUOTE=abaderrr;11399193]There is no way on Earth Atlas is 18% E3. Who told you that? That would be almost 500 E3 pilots.

Atlas restarted E3 recruitment in January 2022. I know I was in that class. So to get over 500 Aussies now you would have needed to hire 33 E3s a month every month since then.
Please stop making stuff up.

That would have been easily covered by just the 74 classes last year, let alone the 777, many of which were 80-90% aussie. Smaller classes this year but still a large contingent of aussies in those classes.

Making stuff up 😂.
"Restarted" is one part of it, so already a number of E3's at Atlas prior to the current wave. Now consider the Australians on the 777, 767 and even 737 courses. Courses are being run every two weeks, and my 747 course alone had 25 in it, 18 of whom were Australian
Not guestimating nor giving an opinion. It's factual.

Na it the sh!t pay and conditions they are trying to get away from.
I personally came over to experience something different, get a widebody window seat and triple my salary. Generally the aussies that have come over are open minded and enthusiastic for a new challenge and new experiences. Those with bad attitudes etc have generally been weeded out.
The American Dream, for pilots anyways, appears very real. Even with a looming world-wide pilot shortage it’s hard to see Australian T&C’s improving significantly. I can’t finish up a career in Australia without taking a peek at the States. About to jump on a flight over now.
