They pay well, fly airplanes for DHL, and don't seem to hire pilots very often

Hi!

ABX, which was the old Airborne Express, and AStar A Cargo, who was the old DHL, both fly for DHL, who bought the entire Airborne Express operation except for the airline part.

ABX and AStar are both in a state of flux, due to DHL trying to grow and figure out the best way to do it.

Hopefully, in a year or two everything will be sorted out and they both will be hiring.

You can say that again......Last class hired was late 2000.

There are sooo many rumors flying around it will make your head spin. I am at the point now that I will believe when I see.

February 2001

I just noticed the other day that ABX is painting their DC9s in DHL colours.

Righto....but does it really qualify, hired in Feb and booted in April. I don't even think that class made through IOE.

Two pilots from the 2/21/2001 class are on the line flying today and another five remain furloughed. One additional pilot from that class bypassed recall.

I know this is strange, but I'm trying to find out information on their new insurance plan. It is with a company call Whole Health Net. I'm trying to find someone who is on the line, that has info on their plan. I'm doing this for a budy of mine who is in the insurance business. Thanks

Never heard of Whole Health, our insurance has been and still is United Healthcare.

What companies supply feeder routes for ABX?

Flight Dept. page links to show hiring mins (difficult to find!):

Actually, none, ABX works for DHL primarily; as do the feeders. There are 2 or 3 in/out of ILN each night, but each company has separate crew facilities, so I don't know who they are; except of course Northwest with their 747.

Heard they are looking at buying pace. This is from a buddy over there.

DHL Feeders

Here are the DHL feeders in ILN besides ABX and Astar:

NWA 747-200F ILN-ANC-NRT-ANC-ILN
Lufthansa Cargo MD11 ILN-EMA-ILN
Ameriflight EM120 ILN-CHO-LYH-ILN
Ameriflight EM120 ILN-MEM-ILN
Aircar SD360 ILN-MWA-ILN
Castle C208 ILN-CAK, YHM-ILN
Norlinor CV580 ILN-YUL-ILN

As far as the out station feeders there is more than I can mention! I hope this helps...

 

[mcjohn]

Thanks. I was told Air Cargo Carriers on another thread. Luthansa?! Wow.

Yes, I think the Aircar SD 360 ILN-MWA-ILN flight is indeed Air Cargo Carriers
