No that's not it. He did an all engine out descent and landing every time he flew. Fuel Sense!!!!

No....he suggested to HR that they change the Purple Koolaid to Orange Tang. Also declined to eat catering that didn't come out of a toothpaste tube.

This is good news since I know some folks at FedEx but haven't formally flown with them. Thanks for the info!
