UPS currently has over 100 pilots on furlough, many of them off the MD11, so there are plenty of MD guys on the street looking for work. Best of luck to everyone!

Here's some information that was recently posted on the private UPS pilot forum:

Any furloughed crew members who are still looking for work we are still hiring at Nordic Global which is a MD11 Finnair Cargo subsidiary out of Helsinki Finland. We just started flying in August with just 6 of us and 1 airplane. We are flying to HKG, ICN and BOM out of HEL so far. They are in need of Md11 crew members who have flown the Md11 in the last 24 months. 4 more UPS pilots just started over here and everyone is very nice to work with, it is a very small company with 2 MD11's so far. If you have 500 hours PIC in something heavy and 5000TT they can hire you as a Captain if you have MD11 experience. It is a 20 on 10 off schedule with travel paid from home which is incuded in your 20 days on.
