Default UPS TA Scope and Pay

I want to know more about the scope clause on this TA. At major airlines, their scope clauses usually entitles them to all airplanes 71 and up (although some are 91+). I have heard a lot about outsourcing of UPS (and FedEx) flying to other carriers flying large aircraft.

I would like to know how scope clauses are currently at UPS or FedEx? Why would you let another company fly 727's/737's or larger aircraft with your freight on it? And how is scope changed in this new UPS TA?
I think the pay is pretty solid (regardless of the inflation calculations I am hearing). You guys will be making a lot of money. I wouldn't get too gready.

I am not sure what "gready" means (haha) but when you work for a company that makes BILLIONS and your pay does not keep up with inflation, your dollars are not worth what they were. UPS and FDX can afford to give actual raises above inflation and should. Just becasue your salary in 1998 dollars is still high in todays market does not make it greedy to ask for more.
