They will bid, they always have. It is the magnitude of the opportunity that is unknown. Like a FedEx team value of 1.4 billion and UPS team goes in the 190 million range this year. No reason UPS couldn't go for hundreds of millions more in contracts. The IPA certainly gave the company the ability.....
and somewhat on topic,<g>, UPS could definitely sell the 747's volume on daily DOD business and use the 11's to do same as well as fly DOD full time. Everything else flows up to backfill.
