Tonight is the last scheduled DC9 flights for ABX / DHL.

The Germans have done in a few short years what it took over 25 to build, it is a sad day for all..........
 
Hey, the ...germans 'aint all that bad. I have their car....8 years old....150 grand on the tach...never breaks, won't rot, and is NICE ride....

When Detroit can do that, a crap-load of our problems will be solved!
 
It's been coming for a long time now, but it still smarts to see it happen. Sorry to hear it, Box. An earlier thread mentioned 157 layoffs on Feb. 16 - are those folks still on the payroll at least until then? Hope so.

Best of luck guys and gals.

Different group of Germans. I am pretty sure he does not mean the whole German race. No need to drift the thread to engineering, beer or sausage making.
 
Sorry to hear it guys, this is truly the end of an era in Wilmington.

Oh, by the way, 78 F250 running strong.
 
I have a 1955 VW Beetle, all original still going. Blows a little smoke and oil, but thats allright. Not bad for a dispossable car.

I used to swing wrenches at ABX, one of the best places I have ever worked.
