FDX Cassil & Orlando letter question
Is it just me that is suspicious of the dates and times these letters were sent?
Is it possible that it's a threat to the Mechanics and the up coming I.A.W./Teamsters election that "see what we can do if you belong to a Union."?
I don't ever remember getting a letter like that on X-mas eve and on New Years day.
Just an honest question, nothing more.

I think the timing was based on not wanting an angry workforce during peak.
The question I have - What is next on the timeline?
- Excess bid followed by furlough announcement
- Furlough announcement followed by excess bid
- Lower averages in March based on success of Feb
- Higher averages in March based on problems in Feb
- Nothing, this will take us thru the downturn
Or
- Something completely different

My guess.
March 09---Excess Bid, big enough to shuffle a lot of the nuggets out of ANC, and the 727 FOs back to the back. Once the 727 FOs getting passover no longer have a standing bid with widebody in their award, I think they lose passover
.
April 09---another HKG bid trolling to see how many of the ANC FO will chose HKG over MEM with a huge pay cut. If they then fill HKG then they will slow roll any excess moves until the new HKG FOs start training.
Oct 09---cancel the excess bid. Too bad about the guys that went to HKG.
Jan 10---have a CGN 757 or airbus bid for the new European domicile.
Mar 10---A new HKG mini plus up bid.
May 10---New system bid with movement.
July 10---New hires.
Anyone else....
