Trivial UPS
 

First, good news at UPS!

Second, I haven't seen anything on this before and was wondering if the current state of things has changed the plans/progress of the Worldport expansion??

Third, any talk of the 744 being brought to SDF??

1. Yes 300 pilots are safe due to effort of 67% of the pilot group. Go IPA 67%

2. NO

3. NO

Brownie,

You are clueless on number 3.

Explain how it could possibly make sense for a/fleet of 747-400's to be based in SDF?
It would work out great for the crewmembers, but how does it work for management? The numbers gave a 10% increase in crewmember utilization by using the ANC base. They don't deadhead up to ANC and lose 4 days a bid period. Not to mention they don't use hotels and incur other expenses while up there.
Its the top 500 guys dream to base the 400 in SDF, but financially doesn't make sense.

SDF over the top bypass ANC to the the destinations , they are working on the program.

Five aircraft to SDF for over-the-pole ops while reducing the DH for hot stby and charter ops....

.....and your source?

VAN DRIVER:D

than it is as good as true.

747-400 management pilot, discussion was on the fmc and GPS capability. Also the school house in the past month.
The van drivers don't know about it yet
