It can't hurt. And it may help. I've been to four over the last few years and I have not been called. Fingers crossed! It is a great way to meet with them and talk over your credentials. It was always a very pleasant and informative experience. The FedEx pilots were genuinely helpful, friendly and very easy to talk with. Each fair I attended was an OBAP and I can not say enough positive things about the people affiliated with that organization. They went out of their way to accommodate.
Just my opinion: Try to avoid going on day one of the fair, if able. I've noticed it to be quite more crowded that day, with longer lines. Day two and three had far fewer people. Good luck!
