Any information on salary, weblinks, contacts, etc. would be appreciated.
If you're serious about working for FedEx Express as a pilot, I would not recommend the instructor route. A "Professional Instructor" will owe FedEx THREE years before he can go to the line. A "handler" will owe 12 months. Both get an interview. I recommend a trip to your nearest Employment Office where you can apply for ANY permanent position (full-time or part-time) with FedEx Express (only Express, not Ground or Freight or Custom Critical or Corporate - - it only applies to Express) and put in a good 12 months, then use the internal application process to get the interview. Meanwhile, figure out a way to maintain "recency of experience" with some kind of flying on the side.
Good luck.
