FedEx is one of my favorite airlines. My ranking changes on a dialy basis depending on my mood. But the way I see it, is you take the first destination airline to offer a job, and you stick with it, no matter what. You chances of having more than one offer at the same time are slim to nil. So the choice isn’t yours, it’s theirs.
So how do you make yourself most marketable? By being a Captain at a regional jet airline until you have 1000 hours PIC. Then you can go anywhere. By backing yourself into a corner with this program sounds like putting all your eggs in a very rickety basket.
I’d have loved FedEx, but it wasn’t to be. No big deal.
This program as advertised, just doesn’t seem to offer enough guarantees to make it worth while.
I’d be happy for my kids to start with this, but to pass other opportunities up waiting for them to make up their mind. I don’t think so.
Empire? That’s news to me. I thought it was just Mountain. Is it the same Empire that used to have Fokker F28 Friendships in Utica NY in the 1980s?
