Read my post carefully, I said if the company doesn’t want us to fly on the side which should be our choice, then they should allow it. And yes one should be allowed to pickup up as much OT as they want. I have hundreds of hours of MU and I don’t use it. I enjoy QOL

SMFH, I’m very much familiar with our contract as it pertains to picking up OT. MU is completely different than picking up OT. As of right now we can pick up no more that 6hrs of OT per month except if you have MU time.
My point is one should be allowed to fly to FAR limits if one chooses to do so. And, you can increase your schedule by 18 hours without any MU. Second, so someone should be able to pick up as much open time as they want, but shouldn't be allowed to fly to 65. |

30 hours in 7 consecutive days (domestic) 32 in 7 (international) Probably the two most likely limits encountered by FedEx guys. I blocked out 17 minutes late and flew an extra 20 minutes on the first leg to NRT on a 12-day trip which was all it took to throw my optimized trip out of 32 in 7 limits requiring a major revision (and that was without any outside commercial flying). Among others, there's also: 100 hours in a calendar month 1000 in 12 calendar months I could see the 32 in 7 for some of the 777 trips for sure. Fair enough. |

So what kind of extra commercial flying job do these guys at United have that doesn't pay anything? If your not getting paid, are you really employed?
Never said they didn’t get paid, I said they weren’t doing it for the money. It doesn’t pay *that* well. |

First, you didn't say anything of the sort in the post I quoted. Here is that post, bad english included:

Go right ahead and PM me yours.
Done. I’ll be looking forward to your text. BTW, I expect you’ll be identifying yourself when you do so and not getting the number from someone who actually works at FDX right? Ya, thought so. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

United for certain, currently. American and Delta did, but I don’t know as of today what the policy is. I could ask a handful of folks from the latter if they’re still at Draken, but I’m too lazy.
To be fair, none of them are flying 121 or charter, and none are doing it for money. May be a different discussion. |

I know you can drop a trip and pickup one that’s worth 12hrs more. But my point still stand that the company shouldn’t restrict your flying on your days off.
By the way, nice job avoiding an answer on your conflicting positions that a pilot should be able to fly as much as they want and shouldn't be able to fly until age 65. |

You just can't have another job that has hours that count against FAR limits without getting their permission first. It's kind of like Apple saying that their employees can't do contract work for Google because it may harm Apple. As Adler pointed out, another commercial flying job could have a negative impact on FedEx. It's part of the terms of employment.

At least this is worthy of a discussion unlike homeslice probie *****ing about beards on JF wishing he was back at Cathay. Wtf do they find these people.
