Is the purple runway even a legit program that actually gets guys in at FedEx or more of a ploy to keep guys at the feeder?
Also never flown freight, but I like the mission, a lot. Recently attended the FedEx pilot expo in Pensacola and could not be more impressed (yes I realize this is not FedEx Express).
Thanks in advance for any useful info...
Stay at your regional and keep applying to FedEx. The flow program is not really a flow and would take forever to get an interview. Plus you'll not make the same money and probably won't be in geg.
