Solid word is: Paris and Hong Kong. Looking at $2700 per month Cola and Fedex pays your foriegn Taxes. Some big company (I think it was Price Waterhouse but not sure) will do your taxes and just tell Fedex what to pay on that. 10K move package and up to 4k a year to put your stuff in storage. No...
Sorry this would have come sooner but I couldn't stop looking at Lupus' avitar! Just flew with a Capt. on the negotiating committee who confirmed what Lupus said. They are still working on LOA language (almost done) then it will go out for a general vote. After that the seat bid. So late summer...
Good question to ask futures. I didn't think so either but reading the CBA it says yes (at least thats how I read it):
25.I.3.e
e. The custom line for a pilot who has been removed from
a portion of his line due to the beginning of ITU training,
shall include a 48 hour duty free period...
Jtmpilot,
You are right about how they will work your schedule. How to bid depends on what you want for the month, where you live and what you can hold. Max pay or time at home before 3 months in the building. If you live somewhere other then MEM and want the time at home. Bid to conflict the...
Subic has cleaned up a bit from the navy days but I still wouldn't take my family. We (Fedex) have a lot of people living there for now and some have a wife (from the states) but I don't think any have kids. Schools are an issue and medical is even more of an issue. I would definately go check...
Everyone seems to be skipping the question OK3 asked. How does more trans-atlantic flying hurt our domistic system? I am with him, I must be missing something. For Fedex the company has already started talking with our Union about new routes we are going to fly because of this. Stuff we can't do...
LOR's a must
I to am proof that you could get in the door at Fedex without LOR's ( I had none and just really worked the line at the Air Inc. conferences) but I think in the post 9/11 era they are a must. The people I know who have gotten calls this year have all had 2 or 3 LOR's. And that...
Interview group
My Interview group last Oct. was 3 military, 2 civilian, 1 both. The bigger thing is the strong LOR's. They are a must have these days!
More info
Kwijybo,
I have a bud that had a job offer and type ready to go to SW when they called with a class date. Still got a call from Fedex and has decided, for his own reasons) to go to Memphis. From what I have seen (not much in the big scheme of things) having a job or not is not going...
Info
Hey just wanted to add to your info. I'm not in the pool, I'm on my way to Memphis. But two squadron buds are in the Mar 28th class that are not on flightinfo. A third hoping for that class got told by JM yesterday that the class was full to expect April. Hope the info helps. Peace LUV and...
Fedex Pool
The pool has got to be empty after the two April classes. I know someone from the last interview group in Oct that is in the April 8th class. Good luck! And keep-em coming!
More Info
Hey,
Thanks for the info. Did you go straight through or was there time off? I have heard that the DC-10 guys get a week off here or there? Wondering because the rumer is there will be DC-10 slots in the April 8th class and I have a pretty high social? Thanks again!
Woz
Class question?
Hey, A question for you guys who have started class lately. How long does it take? I have been told 10 weeks and 8 weeks? I Got my class packet yesterday but it didn't really give any information except when and where to show up. Thanks.
Woz
The pool is dry!?!
Hey Phantom first,
I think your assumptions are all on target. Friend who interviewed in the last group in Oct is in the April 8th class so other then the Air Force guys who are stop-lossed (and I know there were at least 12 in the pool) I would say it is dry. I would...
See you on the 8th
Hey,
Congratz! I will see you in class. Did Kim tell you there would be DC-10 panel slots in that class or did you here it through another source??
Woz
The good call!
Hey,
Just talked to Kim myself and got the same word. April 8th with the possibility of moving up to March 18th. Class sizes up to 16 and maybe bigger. Also had a buddy get an interview call yesterday to interview on March 25th. Things are good!!
