...All I know is what's written on this forum and how miraculously "people in the know" pull data like aircraft class drop for 3 Jan. All of us new guys/gals would appreciate if when you post things clearly out of reach of the typical line pilot that you state either reliable source, paper document, or that you're some Einstein and list as others have "IMHO." I am still very thankful either way and appreciate the constant roller coaster ride of info.
This is how our company functions, they don't like to share more than they have to with the riff-raff driving their planes.
Some of the commenters here are senior captains who've been around the block for a while, other might work in the training department and/or are personal friends with some of the HR folks; the rest of us are certified tea-leaf readers.
They probably won't be able to give you their sources but if you really want actual information then try to call the HR. I'm sure they'll be very helpful...
Seriously though, sorry we can't help more. This is a pilot-to-pilot help line, we try to share with you all what we know or think that we know..
Our HR is severely undermanned and they're probably using Windows 3.0 software. The good news is that they've finally received funding for 56k dial-up modem upgrades! So things are moving in the right direction..

Can anyone hired recently confirm whether or not UPS does an in house medical for new hires? Or is a first class medical all that is required for employment.
I know back in the day American did a medical, I don't know whether they still do however. Thanks.

No company medical from August 2006 and on.. The ADA act and potential lawsuits put an end to company medicals at most airlines. If you can get 1st class FAA medical you're good to go..
