As the FedEx Hiring thread is getting a little long winded, I thought I might start a new thread for the new year for the new hires
Since we’ve got a couple years of “new hires” now on property with W-2s and possibly holding lines, would some of you all like to share some data with the incoming new hires so we can all make the most educated guess on our fleet choice? I also welcome info from the all pilots willing to impart their wisdom on us.
(I know the system bid was recently, so seats available per aircraft might be useful as well)
Info I think would be useful, please add whatever you would like:
- month/year hired (or roughly when)
- aircraft / base (original assigned or changed)
- how long from DOH to activation (ie how long on training pay?)
- CH in recent years, days flown, RONs, etc
- How was your reserve life? (live in base, commute, crashpad expenses, bid first fly, etc)
- W-2 number would be nice for the first year but it doesn’t need to be public if you don’t want it out here (you can post anonymously if you’d like)
I start on Feb 20 and could not be more excited!
THANKS!
