Atlas Air Schedule & QoL?

[JustAnotherDayInParadise]

Howdy, I'm thinking about applying to Atlas and would like to be well informed before doing so. It seems their pilots are stationed all over the place. What is the schedule? Can one live in the States and commute? How many days on/off. Any information would be sincerely appreciated.
Thank you in advance. G

You should post this in the general forum. Nobody will see it here.

I am still very new at Atlas so I can only pass on when I have seen and heard my few months on the line. First of all our bases are in the U.S. MIA, JFK, HSV, CVG, ORD, LAX, PAE, ANC, IAH on the 747 and CVG, and JFK on the 767, and like with any airline living in base will be a big help with QOL. Schedules are all over the place from 17 day trips that you have to come into base the day before and do not get home till the day after your trip to one and two day trips. Some lines are 30 day lines and some are 60. Hope it I gave you a little of the info you are looking for.

I remember when you found out (told us?) in Vegas. Having fun with the big iron?
