Default FDX Training Letter

For what it's worth, the training letter is out for 09-02. If there is an 09-03 coming this week or next....do we think it will stick. I am wondering if anyone in the know, or just good intel has any ideas.

I do know, looking at some of the dates, a lot of folks that were on the 10, are going to have a significant amount of time off before training. A paid vacation if you will

I thought we were expecting an excess from the 75 this week...I guess only time will tell, now back to my light switch.

Prediction:

Excess that pushes max numbers into the back and right seat of the 727 and BLGs move close to 48/60.

Rumor:

European domicile will be established in September. Neither aircraft type nor city specified.

Koln will be a sort facility. Maybe a crew base, maybe not? I know that Zurich had been mentioned as a possible crew base in years past.

So, what does $2700/mo get you in Switzerland? A rented closet? A room at a hostel?
