The A 380 is planned to fly from HKG or PVG direct to ONT or SDF according to long range planning, so I would think that it will based out of SDF.

Actually 1912 after the displacements.

Are all the 744s going to be an ANC domicile? If so, it looks like all newbies will head to the great white north (I sincerely hope I'm one...

), yes?

With the new contract, is there still the $1500/mo kicker for ANC for probies?

Thanks UPS gurus...

I'd be really surprised if we actually assigne the 744 to ANC. It soen't make sense to do it right now, we don't have the facilities, our training center is in SDF, and this company has a history of keeping new jets close to sdf mx for a while.

I bet they go up to ANC AFTER the fleeet is established in greater numbers. Unless their schedules bypass SDF, it doen't make much sense to start a new jet at a new domicile, for such a conservative company.

Besides the 744, what other planes are based at ANC now?

None is my understanding (from the outside looking in...)

My further question as a guy in the pool, if I were to get trained as a new-hire ANC MD-11 FO before the domicile opens in May 07, what do you do until May? Fly SDF lines?

That's correct.
