Its Official!!!DHL moving back to CVG....

[abxdx]

Karma baby! You wish bad things on people it will eventually come back to you....

What a s***hole I am one that is also happy this is happening up there in ILN.

I worked there a short time. There are many kind, caring, hard working folks there that are out on the street after 30 years, through no fault of there own. Sort of sad you have to sling mud.

Enjoy unemployment....ABX thought that DHL could do no wrong but as you can see they just left ABX like the step child they were. Great time for DHL to let you go huh? When there are no jobs out there for dispatchers. Just think you can always throw boxes in CVG....And for the record worked there 3 months 15 days and 3 hours.

Classy, very classy.... You do not know anything about me. I do state my opinion on here sometimes and if you do not agree with it Tough $h!t. I do not believe that I ever resorted to name calling though. I never used the words sick f??? or a$$, even if it was what I was thinking. So keep showing your true colors, I am sure it will help you land that next pilot job.

My true colors? You are the one who cannot wait to post bad news. And you are an A$$. Sorry I just call them as I see them. (seems like anyone who knows you agrees with me)

 

[abxdx]

So using your logic, whoever would have posted that news first is a sick f@$k. For your information I was posting bad news about the company I work for. Why would I revel in something that is going to adversely affect my life? The only person here making an A$$ of themself is you. Take an anger management class dude!

Sorry to burst your bubble, but I am not unemployed. You see I am actaully good at my job.. And you know what there are jobs out there for good dispatchers.

Disclaimer: So I am not attacked by all DHL related pilots out there I know that if you were furloughed, it was because of seniority.

Yea, my mistake you are a peach!

Moderators is right. Too many 14 year olds in this thread....and the one that was started in the dispatcher section as well...by abxdx...who apparently couldn't stand to keep this mud slinging in one place.

You really had to start a thread in another forum with no other purpose than to attack a poster here? Could you try to be any more unprofessional, or does that simply come naturally?

Hey guys. There's nothing to worry about. 1224 is going to Capital Hill to fix this thing. They'll have it all straightened out in no time. (completely dripping with sarcasm) They just can't understand why ABX management didn't come to them to make DHL stay in Wilmington. (more sarcasm)

I wonder how much money has 1224 has spent on lobbyists in the last year. How would that money look distributed among the furloughed pilots?

I have to admit, that was my thoughts as well. We have lobbied up plenty of moral support and one stern letter. None of it has been effective as far as I can see. I do appreciate the hard work and effort though.

Which fleets or planes will be used at the new CVG base? Which fleets were parked?

Bye Bye--General Lee

I think "fleets" is a bit optimistic, nor is CVG really a "new" base. DHL mothballed their existing facility at CVG when they decided to move to ILN after purchasing Airborne. Now they have decided to move back to CVG.

Astar has a handful of A300's & DC-8s still in service, and is currently flying a total of 10 aircraft for DHL.

ABX has 767-200's, some in the SF configuration, some not, and is currently flying 13 for DHL.

There is a smogasboard of other aircraft to include 2 Atlas/Polar 747-400s, 2 or 3 CCI 727s and number of smaller types. There is also service from Europe by a Lufthansa MD11 5 days a week I think.

How many were in service at peak, and what are the load factors on those that are still operating?

It's too bad Astar/ABX (or ABX/Astar) couldn't have locked-in to some of that international flying. It would have kept the company(s) on the property and maybe saved a couple-hundred jobs.

That is if DHL even wanted Astar/ABX to move any of this freight. What is really too bad is that DHL is so piss poor at running a business they ruined ABX in the process.

At peak I believe Astar had some 44 aircraft. ABX had 74 DC-9's and 30 767's along with a handful of DC-8's.

DHL apparently didn't want ABX to do any of the international flying other than a flight or two to Canada. Astar handles some runs to Mexico.
