World Questions

[DogBoy]

It looks like World is a pretty sweet place to work. I see that you do both passengers and freight. Do you fly pax and freight in both the DC-10 and MD-11? Do most of your pilots fly both pax and freight, or is there a passenger side and freight side? What is the hiring outlook for the next 6 months to 1 year?

DogBoy,

We all fly both pax and Freight. The fleet has 2 DC -10F's and one DC-10 pax. The MD-11's are 6 freight and 8 pax.

They are getting together a class for Jan 07 is the rumor. May be for either airframe. After that is anybodys guess for hiring.........

How many of those MD-11's are owned by UPS?

I heard that World's management is going to start another alter-ego carrier called Earth Airways.

What's going to happen when UPS takes them back?

They will just get rid of the North American guys and fly the 767s at World.

ups owns 3 of worlds md-11s.they will go into cargo conversions at a staggered rate.supposedly this will coincide with the introduction of the 3 747-400s that world is saying are coming.that is the plan at least,don't hold your breath,though
