[QUOTE=fantm11;2038232]Looking for some rumor control (yeah, yeah...)/expectations management as someone about to start putting in apps. Heard from a couple of different places that FDX and UPS domiciles were not much longer for ANC.
Totally untrue. Nothing from FedEx about closing Anchorage. That rumor has been going around for years. There may not be any new hire postings to Anchorage but that doesn't mean the base is going to close. I don't have any info more current than FedEx Aug new hires, none went to Anchorage. FedEx has filled open positions in Anchorage on the last seat bid but it has not increased or really decreased the base in the last year. Fewer FO's though than in the past. I wouldn't count on Anchorage being an option as a new hire but you'd find that out when the seat openings are given to the class. Looks like most guys are going to Memphis with some Cologne and some Hong Kong. Supposed to be good hiring in 2016 so anything is possible.
