[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 922695, member: 12508"] So true. With the death of Kim Jung Il, Fred is now our [I]Dear [/I]Leader, which is totally appropriate given his attitude toward employees (except pilots). His VP of Air Operations is currently circulating a memo in which he says "the MD10's are 30-40 years old!". Well, that means that they (the airplanes) were 20-30 years old when FedEx moronically decided to completely rebuild them. Airframes basically last forever, and the low number of cycles that FedEx jets fly mean that they probably could have easily lasted another 20 years. The decision to rebuild these aircraft was dumb all around. I wonder if the bean counters in Memphis can calculate the squander factor for this fiasco? [/QUOTE]
