Air Cargo Carriers and UPS Flowthrough

[aussiefly]

Hey Guys!

Heard a rumour on another message board that ACC is currently negotiating a new contract and the poster was intimating that they were working on a flowthrough agreement with UPS.

Any truth to it?? Any UPS guys heard anything about that one?

got my hours, upgraded quickly, lots of PIC time, Check airman, MD-11 type...And now my best bet to go to UPS is to fly for ACC???

LOL! j/k...but I can't wait to see how this thread goes.

I think they are negotiating a flow back so the over 60 guys have some place to go and still be legal to fly and wear those 4 stripes

 

[aussiefly]

LOL yeah I thought it was pretty far fetched but in this industry ya never know!

Anyway, hope I gave you fellas a laugh outof it at least

 

[OzBushWhacker]

What website was that? My co-pilot and i are looking for a laugh...

And Cherry-Air also signed up for that flow through to UPS because we fly a route for them too! Thats a fact, but no one is supposed to no, so don't tell anybody.sssshhhhhhhhh!

I have it on good authority that Flight Express pilots will get DOH later this year when they're acquired to "increase frequency". I knew I should never have quit.

So do all the Ameriflight pilots get in on this action. If so I would like to use my old seniority from 1995 to get on with UPS. I think I will bid the 74-8 out of indoc. Don't want to be to greedy and go for Captain out of the chute

I heard Cathay is hiring street captains from a flow-through from Colgan, and they're working on one with Airnet, too.

Mwuuhahahahah... Trick or treat!

Actually there is some truth to the rumor. It was told to us by the CEO of the company that they are trying to negotiate some sort of flowthrough. Now wether it's going to happen or not, that is a whole other subject. Personally I think it would be a cold day in hell if UPS agrees to that.

That must be the same ceo trying and promising you guys all atr fleets for past 10 yrs. These dip s..ts will say anything to thier employees so they can make them stay longer.

 

[JetSpeed219]

Exactly

Talked to several managers and someone in HR last year about giving ACC and others the possibility of interviewing at UPS. They all seemed open to the idea and felt that ACC had a lot of quality pilots to interview from. I don't know if this is related, but I do hope that they consider the possibility of at least giving them an interview.

During my stint at SDF in the cafeteria (after we got thrown out of the sleep room for a loud snoring captain) I would talk with several UPS pilots and the general consensus was to get 121 PIC time.
ACC is a great company and I think it is one of the better 135 gigs for sure, but I'd say to go from there to UPS would be slim at best. Good luck though- rum
