The only reason Fedex has a "B" scale (your words not mine) is that Fedex pilots failed to get a WB rate above UPS during the 2006 negotiations. As long as we had a higher WB rate than UPS, this "B" scale discussion did not exist.
I'm glad that Fedex and UPS contracts become amendable around the same time, I think it works to both our advantage. I hope both groups are able to exploit what ever advantage they can and also use the (soon to be) superior rates that all believe are soon to be at the legacy carriers.
