Default UPS charter carrying refugees???

OK, got an email from a friend with this You Tube video that says that UPS has flown charters for the US government that carry Muslim "refugees" into the US and bypasses Immigration and security.

Not at all confident in the validity of the report, but putting it out there for our UPS brethren to confirm or deny.

That's a very old livery scheme on that B747. Also, that article was from 2000!!!

Guessing it's totally bogus but I'm just a FDX guy.

Wow. I just watched some of those videos from that link and I must say I feel dumber from it. If they were going to create a conspiracy they could have at least used an ACMI carrier that has passenger planes to do it with. Stating that because UPS had some 727-100QC airplanes back in the early 90's did nothing to convince me. How long have those planes been gone? Since the mid-90's?

I watched a few of this guy's videos. Coo-Coo!!!!

It belongs on C2Cam or one of those other late night talk shows. I really fear for the republic when I see crap like this. Totally bogus with no basis in fact.

He might as well pin it on us as we had those B-747 pax birds back in the '90s. Who's to say we didn't hide them somewhere so President O could use them for his nefarious plots. Wait a minute. We had a Chief Pilot O and now we've got a President O. Coincidence or conspiracy?

Yes, there is a provision in our last contract for a refugee override that pays time and a half on those particular flights. It's a pretty good deal. Between that and the chemtrail contract, UPS is making out quite handsomely and it is great that they share the wealth so freely. The only catch is the Langly, Virginia domicile posting which has some high cost of living expenses so a lot of it goes to new hires.

I'd suggest that your friend seek help.

That said, there was a big to do by the wing nuts when they spotted a prisoner transfer flight offloading near our ramp in the middle of the night.

That's it. It's the chemtrail. I just knew it was real. I wonder when the reality show starts on The HC ?

I like the video that uses the A380 in UPS livery landing in France. It's photoshopped so badly the airplane is missing 2 of the 4 main gear trucks.

How many of those big birds you got over at UPS anyway?

Just wait until they catch our AN-225 on one of its missions. So far as the world knows, there's only one of those things flying around. Most people believe they never completed the second one. With the modern engine technology, the new one really hauls.



(It's a good thing the press can't read these forums.)

This is obviously not true, as any IPA pilot knows catering that many people would surely bankrupt the company.
