I moved off the 777 a few years ago, but I will go back when I can hold the left seat with some seniority.

I had forgotten about the shrimp cocktail, but yes, it is good.

If you are in Memphis for one of our holiday meals, take part. You won't regret it. There is one tonight, I believe.

Unfortunately, my schedule has me missing them all this year.

Does FedEx have scope protection for this type of thing?

Yes, above a certain point, we get a penalty payment.

Well, at least we used to...not sure about the new contract.

I don't get it. I REALLY LIKED the catering. I just operated FX2 yesterday MEM-STN on a 747.

I don't think there was any sarcasm implied. Compared to regular Atlas catering the food out of MEM is really good. And FedEx runs like a real airline. Unfortunately I couldn't hold any of the FedEx flying this year.

Sorry, the international may be OK, I've just been looking at Domestic white boxes for too long.

Go catch an international Atlas jumpseat out of CVG to re-cage your catering gyros then.
