Default FDX - Bid

So when is the MOAB 76 bid?

from investor conference call...

Alan Graf - EVP and CFO
........ We need those 767s, I mean every time we get a 767 and replace a MD-10, it's a $10 million annual positive impact to the P&L....

I think you mean MOAD. Mother of all displacements.

No displacement. The bid will clear out the overage.

So the 4 months we are spending doing the glass mod ourselves is costing about 3 million in revenue!

There's got to be more to life than worrying about things you have no control over. RELAX.

Glad we are in a favorable environment for contract negotiations then.

Can't be. Apparently they cannot afford KCM.

Latest update from 75/76 Fleet Captain "from the Hangar" says:

"Fleet Projection / Bid

For fiscal year 2015, which begins in May 2014, we will add 10 B767 aircraft to our Fleet and by May of 2015 we will have a total of 14 B767's. In the same time frame we will add 13 B757's to our Fleet for a total of 101 B757 aircraft by May of 2015.

Expect a vacancy posting late March to account for the growth of the Fleet(s). Pilots in the B767 bid pack can expect a Special Bid Award (SBA), possibly in April. The SBA will carve out the classic cockpit flying as provided for in the B767 LOA."


So... will the bid open on 28 March?

It will open when it absolutely can't be delayed any longer and then add a month! But expect vacation buy back and very high BLGs in the interim.
