Hello folks, Search engine is not working very well for me. Tried to research about food bu tb wh em clicking on the post would show me a different one...weird. How someone that cares about diet and healthy food is going to deal with the Atlas lifestyle?! Carrying food is not an option..is it? What catering food is available? is it possible to maintain a certain (healthy) diet during the trips?

Plus, how many crew are on to do that mission?

4 operating crew. Maximum of 1 mechanic and 1 loadmaster. 6 total of 8 possible on a -400/-8 freighter.
Catering is passable, nothing stellar in 90% of the places we go. You could possibly make due diet wise here. My suggestion would be to find some bit of compromise otherwise you’ll be eating a lot of fruit.

Actually have a few vegans here. Dedicated Capt carries a duffel bag full of preferred food with him. Granted, he throws some away depending where he ends up but shops at local grocery stores when able. Easier before the viral debacle of course.

Don’t call it a mission. This is the civilian world no matter what the FAA says.

Piece of filet and a fruit platter is not too bad for you.
Catering from MIA is awful though. Thankfully for now that flight credits over 30 hours so makes up for the lack of edible food.

Especially the domestic catering is prison food.
Body by Atlas is a serious issue.
It can be a challenge if you’ve got 8hrs to go and nothing but processed empty carbs.
You need a lot of discipline.
