Calletta carrying FedEx freight?
Haven't signed on in awhile, so I don't know if this is an old topic or not.
But tonight a mechanic friend of mine told me he saw the 3 Calletta 747s being loaded with our freight. Actually followed the tugs there. Maybe I'm way out of the loop, but aren't we talking about how bad things are and we have too many people, airplanes?
Maybe this is old news.

I plan to, but they have these things called business hours. Just like when I need them in the middle of the night for a contractual dispute.

Wow! You've got some serious spelling and grammar issues. I hope you fly better than you write!
They even write the word KALITTA on the side of the airplane in HUGE letters.

This is normal ops, happens every peak. The sky is not falling. And it's Kalitta Air. I've only been here a few years and I've seen it every year.
BTW, they are furloughing roughly half their pilots. A couple of my good friends and about 150 others will be jobless after the hollidays. Let's keep things in perspective.
