If the flight is booked as full, I suggest listing as a standby. Most Captains will suggest that a FedEx pilot sit in one on the cockpit jumpseats, allowing an off-line pilot to ride in the rear.
Offline? Does this mean other airline pilots?
For the seats in the back, does FDX allow any pilots or other (licensed airmen) employees from other CASS airlines to ride in the back, but not the cockpit?
I work in HPN for Atlas, but live here in MEM. I wonder if I'm able to ride in the back of FDX on friday nights to MEM. I know we are CASS, but I dont know if that includes other cockpit qualified employees like myself.
I remember that FDX had real heartburn with any riders after 9/11. I wonder how it all panned out.
