August 5/6 Class
 

Does anyone have any idea if UPS needs any more MD pilots? Also any tips for commuting from East coast to Anchorage?

We will know for sure next week

If a system bid comes out next week, when does it typically close?

System bids have been twice a year for the last couple of years, one JUST CLOSED a few days ago, another should come out DEC.

No more MD crews in ANC. The recent system bid, (actually displacements are still in progress), will displace and relocate all of the ANC MD pilots by the end of the year ... FWIW.

I commuted from BDL for 5 years to ANC. 100% I was on company jets through SDF to get to ANC. 98% of the time I did the same to return to BDL. Occasionally caught the pax carriers out of SDF on a weekend andter a UPS flight from ANC.

There are other ways to commute, (EWR direct and possibly through RFD) but through SDF always offered the most flexibility and availability. I chose to keep it simple

I don't think we do ewr anc anymore

JFK-ANC now

Thanks for the info. I got a CJO for August 5. So I’m guess I’ll be assigned the 747 as there is an August 6 class as well. Assuming I receive a FJO before that time.

Do not assume ANYTHING with Brown. First rule.

Could be sdf MD
