Atlas Memphis base?
I heard from a 747 Captain that Atlas is opening a Memphis crew base. Is this true and why? There is no room north for parking a 747 or a 767 for that matter. Maybe south of Winchester where UPS parks there is room. I know Atlas does assist FedEx during peak and with the postal contract from time to time but that would not be a reason for a crew base. Amazon has built a very large facility on the TN. MS. state line. Could that have something to do with it?
