They spend each day at home, and the ones that I've talked to seem to like their jobs. I believe they are paid a salary as opposed to how the rest of the FedEx pilots get paid.
Ahhh, I see - so even though there are Caravans sitting there with FEDEX written on them the planes and pilots are supplied by subs?
I thought that was UPS doing that?
