So where will FedEx base them?

Uh, two sentences later I said that they are still trying to nail down the location of the domicile so that it can be included on the bid. But if you want rumors, I'll give you rumors: Zurich, Frankfurt and Prague. Zurich is wicked expensive and they're probably looking at some sort of COLA to base guys there. Prague is cheap but the infrastructure outside the city is strictly third-world, so some concerns there as well. Frankfurt might have the fewest headaches. Believe it when you see it on the bid (or when the first guy moves!)
