Atlas celebrates World Pilots Day, features pilot training center

At Atlas Air’s Miami pilots training center, the cargo carrier is training its next class of pilot trainees, who undergo weeks of course work, examinations and simulator training before getting a chance to fly. “Our instructors have a lot of tenure and knowledge,” said Teressa Mastrosimone, director of training center operations. “They’re not just telling you about flying the airplane, but their experiences and life at Atlas.”
