Not sure if it's the same person that you're referring to or not, but the one "new hire" that I've heard of (through the grapevine) that resigned in Oct was already typed on & had time in the B767 when hired @ HA. Apparently FedEx called and the simple math of overall career progression/expectation/compensation made the decision a numbers game.
A quick glance @ airlinepilotcentral.com's at rates may be an eye opener. I don't have hard numbers, but I could only guess how many 30-ish 1st year FOs on 1st year pay @ HA would pass on chance @ FedEx.
