Cargo networking advice
I'm a 16 year Air Force Lt Col and F-15 IP/EP with 3K hours stationed in North Carolina. Not staying a day past 20years and want to set myself up for a cargo carrier upon retirement but most members of my community are flying for Delta, United, SWA. From what I here, recommendations are everything at FEDEX. I have a uncle who works for FEDEX express as an executive in Indy but not a pilot. Anybody recommend how to network breakthrough in the Fedex/UPS community? We have a lot of talented guys in my community and seem to go to the same airline due to established contacts. I am looking to expand my opportunities.
I still have a few years but rather start this process earlier rather than later. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

How would i go about getting the seniority list? Cargo I believe would be the best fit for myself and family. I just want to have everything in a sock about a year prior to retirement.
How many recommendations do you think would help? Also, would non-pilot recommendations happen or even accepted? Thank you.
