Is Swift only recruiting for the CVG cargo base? I spoke with the CP and he said that crews fly different missions; charter, cargo, etc., not just one type; cargo. Is that not true?

Does Swift own the cargo aircraft or is it like Southern where DHL owns the aircraft and Southern just operates?

As far as I know, Swift owns the cargo birds. We hire into bases where pilots are needed. There is no more home basing here

It depends. If you're working out of base yes. Sometimes if you're doing work outside of your base they will get you a plane ticket out of your home airport. Just some teeth pulling for it at times.
