Not having enough crews was the reason Mesa walked away from their Amazon flying. That and no money in it. Same as Atlas.

Expect 10 767s departing between June and December 2024. The additional 7 gone by June 2025, timing to be determined. Titan leased to Amazon, sounds like ABX gets them all.

737s Stay until March 2025, all gone June 2025. Not Titan assets. No clue who gets them.

3x Atlas freighters freed up for AMC Cargo, Asia Pacific Customers, and South America business.

Pax birds remain.

You assume so much which is hard to believe coming from a military perspective. Then again, we are a bit tainted aren't we as military folk. No worries though, no one gets you

*Clue32 - can we get more 76 pax birds so I don't stumble upon any on our side. I like to keep my uniform clean and not beg to be let out of the pantry for starters. I know you can make this happen.

He can’t help attacking to defend his position. I fly the nazi bus, don’t commute, don’t jumpseat, never been to a crashpad, live in base, dealing with passengers is not a thing for the pilots and FAs interaction is minimal.
I’ll never trash Atlas, quite the opposite, I’ll tell people to shut up when they talk **** because they can’t understand what working for Atlas is.
I know a lot of dudes attack Atlas, but they’re just ignorant. And those that actually flew for Atlas they just should be grateful they had a such a job at some point either during a downturn or during COVID.
I’ll go fly my nazi bus now.

Same, lots of good folks at Atlas and a lot of interesting flying. Seems like Apollo is making sensible moves as a (now) outsider, even though they’re painful. Had it not been for family considerations, I’d have probably stayed.

Returning to regularly scheduled programming, really sorry to hear about the loss of the 737s/most of the 767s. Hopefully it’s a relatively smooth landing for everyone affected and it seems like there’s an opportunity to shuffle folks through training given the timeline.

Acknowledge it’s no longer my monkey and never was my circus; I’ll try to go back to lurking now.

[Mod Input] We've got our eye on him. It's a fine line sometimes, as we find sometimes folks will simply create a new account and continue trolling, agitating, etc., under a new (harder to track) name.

Also, the moderators can't be in every forum all the time. I strongly recommend folks use the "report post" capability if you feel there is a post which violates the TOS. It is the Red Triangle with a ! in it in the bottom left section of each post. Help us help you. You'd be suprised at the number of posts we delete, 4 in this thread already...
