Hi all

Any of you fellow GA'ers applying for F/O positions at Atlas?

If so good luck to us all?

54? FE's on furlough at Atlas, lots more at Polar, with no recall expected. So not planning on EVER again hiring FE's.

Really?
Keep in mind, that cargo job ain't what it's cracked up to be.
Investigate, before jumping.

You would be out of your mind to leave your bizjet job to fly 747 cargo. The bigger the jet, doesn't necessarily correlate to a better job.

Indeed the grass isn't automatically greener, but I've been going to bed with the mobile on the nightstand for a number of years now 24/7/365.

Time for a change possibly

Leave my 605 for Atlas? I'd have to be high. Size doesn't always matter.
