Fedex is a shrinking airline - yes we will have some good growth (but not nearly as good as some think on this board) for the next few years but we have less pilots today than a year ago and we will have less pilots in 5 years from now than we did 10 years ago.

Ironic, you're talking down Delta while in other threads talking down FedEx pilot's ability to get a good contract. News Flash: you're the problem.
