Atlas Air Hiring
Yes, you will get paid for your actual flying time. The grass is always greener on the other side. That said, I think most of us are trying to get out for the pay (myself included).

Not quite. The details are not yet for public consumption, but this AIP was done largely due to the efforts of a few tough pilots, the Local 769, and the personal work of IBT Airline Division Director Dave Bourne. The old plantation owner has left for retirement. Waiting around for attrition had never worked at AJT. What worked was the tenacious efforts of a small group of guys and girls for over 12 years. Hard, painful work, including a three week strike in 2009 wore down the management. It would have been achieved a lot sooner if 36th street wasn't so infected with scabs and compromised "pilots". These guys have actively tried to scuttle any serious negotiations between the two parties.

I was implying that instead of pilots who WANT to work on their days off, the company will be extending whoever they need. I guess the question is - what's more expensive? Extending a pilot for, say, 4 days or paying a volunteer who chooses to work extra 4 days during their time off.
Im glad to hear that your CBA puts limits on extending pilots.

It's not so easy for them to extend a pilot that is on a bidline. The CBA really limits the company on extending a bidline holder.
Anyway, I am not sure what you were trying to imply. Just because the company has some flexibility to extend a reserve line holder, does not negate the effects of pilots not picking up extra flying.

Im a little confused on the website..I applied awhile back, and it says under review in the status section under "past job submittals", but above that section there is one that is titled "iForms to complete". It looks like just another blank job app, but does that need filled out also, or is that just what it is...a whole new app?
Sorry if that sounds dumb, but I havent logged in to check the status in a while and couldnt remember what the main page looked like option wise..thanks!
