We had 5 Atlas pilots in my class, most came from the 747. But I think either rating would help.

Not sure if this has been covered, but a new hire in class right now got ANC -11

(Ie, it’s not a pipe dream)

So I'll have at least one person below me!

Folks, does Fedex still require applicants to have lived in US for at least the last 5 years? Something to do with a security clearance check due to transportation of US Mail, iirc.

Thx.

Any chance there might be any ANC based types online here who might be interested in exchanging their thoughts on hiring in exchange for lunch in ANC? 737 guy here trying to break the purple code...

That may be considered unethical. It’s like receiving a gift in exchange for information.

I don’t think it’s unethical. First no pilot here not directly involved in the hiring process knows the hiring process exactly. Second people buy people lunch all the time and talk business. I’m sure that no pilots here have met with their buddies and talked about the hiring process with them over a beer or dinner etc.

The guy just wants to talk to a FedEx pilot and offered to pay for lunch in the process for his time, who cares.

If I still lived up there I would take him up on the offer, but I would probably pay for the grub since I probably get paid more.

Maybe I’m just paranoid after watching all the videos for years and answering the questions. I just think it’s a thin line to walk. Discussing hiring with a buddy over lunch is different that agreeing to meet with a Stranger to discuss hiring in exchange for lunch.
