Hope this was just a curiosity-type question and not a "should-I-do-it" -type question...

A little over a year ago MGT's policy was not to hire any furloughed pilots from Legacy carriers! Then they started allowing the hiring USAir Furloughed pilots. Now they are hiring Furloughed pilots form all Legacy carriers.......
Hopefully the trend will continue and they will begin accepting qualified interviewees from ALL walks of life...........................
Email your ACP and voice your opinion................it is a stupid policy.

go figure.
go figure.I just don't understand FedEx Mgts hiring policy...............One would think when you can hire the most qualified.(i.e Glut of Pilots with few Carriers hiring).........you would do so.
I am just a Line pilot.........what do I know

Relax. Not everyone is trying to steal jobs. It was a legitimate question. I guess I didn't think it through when I first asked the question. I guess scope would not apply if they are on strike. I apologize if I ruffled anyone's feathers...

They want to fly the plane empty out of the country to protect it.

Sounds to me like the company should offer the World pilots a Fair deal.
If they did, I am sure the World Pilots would be glad to fly the A/C out of Africa.
Good Luck to the World Pilots!
Shame on anyone one who would suggest or even consider scabbing for World! (or anyone else for that matter)
