Memphis Crash Pads...

[Kav]

Myself and another fellow FedEx guy are heading back to Memphis for upgrade training (MD-11 LAX) on the 28th. I'm sure the AOC still has postings for crash pads, but if anyone else has any other avenues that we can use to try to land something ahead of time, that info would be most appreciated...!

Looking for two single (not shared), furnished rooms for two guys beginning around the 28th of June and lasting for 3 to 4 months.

Thanks for any help/info anyone has.

Kav,

Send me a private message and I'll give you some scoop. They have fully furnished apartments and it is on a golf course in a decent area. I'll give you the info for the FedEx crewmembers.

Cheers,

General Info Questions:

Doesn't the company pay for hotels during training? Or is it that you wouldn't want to say where they put you?


3 to 4 months? A complete transition training cycle at AA takes only 4 weeks, 5 if you are international.

If you are training in Memphis you are on your own for a place to sleep. If you are training off site, i.e. another city, then you get a hotel, rental car (one for every two crewmwmbers) and perdiem all on FedEx's dime.

MD11 training:
-3 weeks ground school
-2 weeks fixed-base trainers
-3 weeks sims and checkride
-2 weeks "Death by Loft" (7 of them:MD10 differences, International ops, RNAV/GPS, Special procedures)
-IOE

I am in the DBL phase.....

Yep, it is a 64 consecutive day program, or 39 working days with days off. We get 6 days off after the oral, plus the "death by LOFT" so it really is a marathon. We have to learn Airplane X after the type ride.... (MD-10) so don't look at any of that stuff before you show up, Kav. Just get the CMI done.
