Read the quote head Heilhaavir, he said ever been to MIA in Focus colors. What a bunch of baby's you are. I'm done with the lot of you and this thread.

^^^I said "I don't think 354 has ever been to Miami". Another words, 354 has never been in Miami. And 355 is not...yet, wearing Focus colors. What you saw, was 535. END OF STORY!

Go see a doctor.

Wow sorry I caused such a huge mess. I just heard someone say Tradewinds had bought the airplane the other day. I thought someone on here would know if it's true. Wow I need to just learn to not ask questions here. LOL

Enough already!

Why is this thread getting out of control, with all the name calling?

I have seen 361, 362 and 535 making the rounds in MIA, have not seen 354MC there in a long while. As for N355MC, I contacted my buddy at Focus, who is in Flight Ops and asked him about N355MC, he replied to me via email this morning, see below: (the names have been deleted, but the text is his words)

XXXX:

As far as I know, we do not own 355. The guy who is saying that he's seen it
in our colors needs to have his eyes examined. Or maybe he's just saying
all of this to get you guys stirred up.

XXXX

The solution sounds simple to me. If the aircraft is still parked at MIA,
take a picture of it with the reggo clearly defined. That will solve any
problems

IMHO isn't 355 a -300 and 535 a -200. Surely as professional pilots you can tell the difference. Even I as lowly CC can do that!

As of October 9th, 2006 N355MC still on Atlas Air Ops Specs and sitting at Roswell.

Question: What is the status of 355, sold,parked?


Response: 355 is not being operated and remains for sale.

My apologies, I guess I better get to the eye doctor and get my prescription checked.

Word...

I just interviewed with a Company who wants to buy more Classics but despite their efforts, they told me there are very few (Classic 747's) on the market. No surprise that Atlas is using 355 now.

Whale Driver,

You're right, that flight operated more than a year ago, Fr8Dog is posting old news. I just checked our flight schedules and N355MC is no where to be found!

Atlas, at this time is not operating this aircraft!

Just talked to a friend of mine who is an un-fired FE at Polar. He said the chief pilot mentioned two classics coming back to Polar. May that is it. I can think of a lot of airplanes to get rid of and a -300 isn't one ofthem. It probably still belongs to Atlas.
