Atlas Air at TPA

[Murdoughnut]

Checking to see if any of the Atlas folks on here are working the charter 747 currently parked at TPA - figured I'd run out there and say hello if you were.

They don't let me fly planes with 4 spinny things.

@Polar742 is coming to the twin. @Dan208B is flying a propane tank, last I heard. @Alchemy, maybe.

Yep, and propane accessories tonight.

I couldn't see the 747 due to the shear awesomeness of the mighty beechjet I pulled in with parked next to it.

Any recent hires want to post or PM with background on lifestyle, QOL etc? What I find on line is about four years old

Airline pilot central.

Airline pilot central.

Yeah, figured it out right after I posted and thought about it. Never go there but I'll look.

That thread is the source of all the knowledge you'll need. The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

And remember, you'll owe them 17 days every month.

My understanding is some months it could be more than that counting gateway travel.

 

[Polar742]

You owe the company 17 duty days.

Gateway is commuting on off days, except you have a seat, wear normal clothes and can have a beer.

There are ways to work the system a bit once you're off probation to reclaim some of your days off, but that depends highly on your base. For CVG 767, I'd say on average I'm at work 15-16 days a month. ANC 747 may be another matter if you're junior.

Application going in on my next day off.

You and me both.

That sounds like an ominous statement...
