Air Cargo Carriers and UPS Flowthrough

Its not gonna happen, sorry fellas.

I only said they should be given a shot at an interview with UPS not flow-though. There are only a few pilots that I personally know at ACC that would not fit into the UPS pilot group.

I know plenty of pilots (most of whom don't work at ACC) who "should be given a shot at an interview with UPS," as well. That doesn't mean jack, however.

UPS has their hiring system, and it doesn't include preferential anything for ACC, Airnet, Cherry Air, AmeriJet, etc, etc, etc... It does sound as if some overzealous, unscrupulous management types floated this one to keep people from jumpin' ship. I've seen it at all sorts of different places.

Doesn't mean these pilots at these places don't deserve a shot, but as momma says, the world just ain't fair, kid. Get used to it.

I really do not understand why all the flap about this, Feeder pilots get the move to FedEx, heck, most of the current FedEx group are ex-Feeder guys

Zuh?

The flap is that I and several others I know have talked to UPS recruiters/captains at UPS in the past year and they're serious about the "trans-oceanic heavy time." They are hiring people into the Anchorage base to fly trans-pacific.

I didn't think ACC did trans-oceanic.

Just curious where you got that statistic? I'm not sure that it is accurate.

Apparently FedEx doesn't screen for a sense of humor.
