[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1284364, member: 12508"] So far, but most Express couriers have little to do with an "airline". If you look at a real airline, like Southwest, everyone who works there is directly-tied to it...not so at Express. The vast majority of FedEx employees are truck drivers who never see a FedEx aircraft, hence the "trucking company that operates aircraft" thinking. My station gets most of it's P2 from an airport 800 miles away that is trucked, and the only people at my station who ever enter an airport are shuttle drivers. Sure, FedEx operates aircraft, but they are in support of a delivery/trucking function that dwarfs the airline segment. [/QUOTE]
