Doesn't sound good for Kallita.
The future of air cargo/freight is the B767 and B777.
The future cargo market is the Americas; Canada, USA Mexico, Latin America, South America. An ideal market for thr B767.

The LATAM may be the largest growth region from an ACMI perspective.

In this Free Trade world we live in now, Asia will continue to be the manufacturing hub (read..."rubber dog-xxit out of Hong Kong) of the world. So the consumer-driven economies in North America and Western Europe will continue to be the destinations for these goods.

World air cargo traffic growth detail
International air freight will drive overall world air cargo growth through 2031.
Over the next 20 years, world air cargo traffic will grow 5.2% per year. Air freight, including express traffic, will average 5.3% annual growth, measured in RTKs. Air mail traffic will grow much more slowly, averaging only 0.9% annual growth through 2031. Overall, world air cargo traffic will increase from 202.4 billion RTKs in 2011 (down from its 2010 record of 204.2 billion RTKs) to more than 558.3 billion RTKs in 2031.
Asia will continue to lead the world air cargo industry in average annual growth rates, with domestic China and intra-Asia markets expanding 8.0% and 6.9% per year, respectively. Latin America markets with North America and with Europe will grow at approximately the world average growth rate, as will Middle East markets with Europe. The more mature North America and Europe markets reflect slower and thus lower-than-average traffic growth rates.

Did not receive my Harvard MBA as yet, but even with sluggish economies, someone needs to send the rubber crap. When you look at the financial summaries of Atlas, it certainly is well-positioned to accept the lift that is no longer feasible on the 747-200 aircraft. While some of the shipments could be tranferred to shipborne carriers ( especially if faster more efficient ships are developed), there will always be a need for timely providers.
There are several factors Atlas is high on my radar: 1. Diversification of fleet to capitalize the different marketing missions. 2. Acceptance and leadership demonstrated during the 747-800 program. Standing up to Boeing was needed. 3. The Brain Trust. The cadre of Company Officers and BOD is quite impressive, especially with the experience for global logistics. A few more additions and Atlas could host a Generals/Admirals Club.
For many of us, I would love to see the pilot growth hinted at becoming a reality. I'm selfish.

I was going to list it's remarkable pilot group with an "unique ability to conquer heavy and light twin donains."
I figured most of you would have lost your meal. I grovel and bribe; however, even I know when its getting deep.. Safe flying.
