FedEx had alluded to the development of a pilot pipeline when they announced the purchase of a bunch of Cessna SkyCourier 408F aircraft.
They'll get a lot of interest as FedEx is one of the best jobs in the biz...and they have a lot of TP feeder airplanes to crew.
Here are the preliminary details:
Purple Runway – A FedEx Pathways Program has three main objectives:
• To further career development of pilots during their employment with the feeder;
• To assist the feeder operator in its efforts to recruit high-quality, well-trained candidates; and
• To provide FedEx Express with an early opportunity to evaluate feeder pilots as potential applicants for available FedEx Express trunk positions.
