The CEO isn't going to agree with anything like this in an employees chat... there are other employees in the company and on the call who don't make anything near as much as the pilots do. These calls are sanitized. Let the union do its job.

Kinda the opposite from the -400 trips. Here, 98% of everything is: Day 1 you leave the U.S., end of trip...welcome back to the U.S.
Canadian out bases?

Sorry, nope.
I meant to say outstations in Canada.

All the pilot domiciles are in the U.S.

Just curious as to what a 76 new hire could expect the schedule to look like for the first year. Anyone have an actual 3-4 month snapshot within their first year recently? CVG most likely?

Definitely CVG. JFK/767 is senior.

No, the word is they want everyone out flying fourth quarter. Next year I'm sure their will be lots of 74 classes.

No 747 classes planned. 767 classes through mid-October.

I'm not going to go through the whole thing, but the last bid package shows a lot of flying lines with block times in the low 40s down to the 20s. Mid 30s for an average? On the cargo side, the routes don't change, but sometimes they mix AMZ/DHL in a single month sometimes they're separate.

Oh, and I flew 100 hours in the last 12 months.
