Fred has no choice since the FDX fleet is almost as old as he is.
UPS avg. fleet age 12.9 years
FedEx avg. fleet age 21.5 years
BTW UPS owned two ocean freighters thru Overseas Partners in the 80's.
You know if this was say a,
Small Package Forum in stead of a
Pilot Forum you, sir, would be king of the boards.
But alas, this forum is for pilots over pilot issues and not
too concerned with issues related to marine transport, rail transport or road, other than how it affects AIR TRANSPORT.
Your interests appear to lie solely with UPS, Which is fine. But don't assume anyone reading here gives much of a rats @ss to these other issues, even if UPS makes lots of money using them.
To the UPS pilots reading this guys dribble, I hope this isn't typical of what you have to live with at Brown. But based of what I've read from you all, I assume it is. Thankfully at Purple, our company types keep a lower profile (online).
