Why GIANT
Atlas Air is named for the Titan who held up the sky, and its tail logo was drawn from the Atlas statue at Rockefeller Center. The Titans were giants, and the airline is the world's largest operator of the Boeing 747. Atlas has never said which of the two it had in mind.
Atlas Air is a major American cargo airline and passenger charter operator based in New York. It manages the world's largest fleet of Boeing 747 freighter aircraft. Atlas Air provides crucial global airlift capacity for major logistics companies, military contracts, and private charters.
