[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 516904, member: 12508"] The real reason FedEx is grounding part of their fleet is politics. Yes, volumes are down, but Smith is trying to blow smoke up the collective asses of Congress by some deft maneuvering. By mothballing 14 aircraft, Smith hopes Congress will believe him when he says the end of the RLA exemption will "destroy" FedEx. [B]If[/B] [B]anyone involved in the UPS lobbying efforts against FedEx reads this, please forward it. This is just another of Smith's con jobs, and these planes will be right back in the air when traffic levels come back. All of a sudden, FedEx is in the market for new (Boeing) planes, a blatant attempt at blackmailing politicians into NOT eliminating the FedEx Express Carrier exemption.[/B] If you want a level playing field, I strongly suggest that you understand this move for what it is.....a lie.
