Wonder if we should be reading between the lines at FDX......here's a novel idea.....no more PAX carrier DH's. ALL trips either begin out of MEM (or domicile), or the company will build a DH route for you, using company assets. I'm sure some bean-counting idiot has already proposed that idea. It's what's probably making upper MGMNT scratch their collective heads and say, "hmmm.maybe....."
no PAX terminal transit, therefore no need for KCM. Saving $$ by the bucketload

I'm fatigued and possibly sick just thinking about that!

That proposal fits with the PBS idea. They complement each other nicely.

I'll wear my 767 lanyard in support of it.

It's where you drink for free sitting in the first class lounge waiting for your flight (on foreign airlines anyway).

WOW, thanks for the heads up.
Maybe if you just used it silently...
