25 years here and sitting at 70%. Can't hold a line, only VTO. Sad part is that I predict Fedex and UPS will be future pilots last choice vs a first or second choice that we have had in the past. The other facet is that management doesn't even see the storm that is brewing on the horizon. Oh sure they will fill future classes but maybe not the same calibur as before. JMHO

It will be a "stepping stone" airline. Fly for a year and move on.

You mean the same caliber of pilots who know how to spell.

Sorry, couldn't resist that softball.

Alright I admit it, I'm a crappy speller, but I know how to fly the heck out of an airplane and not smack the tail. By the way does the outfit in my Avatar make my face look fat? :cool:

We're already moving toward the "last option." Four pilots in my ANG unit started at legacies the last few months. Only one had FDX as his first choice, and he's now happy at Delta.

?? I've been a wide body CA at FedEx for almost 9 yrs now, still haven't come close to $300K.
