Ahh, that is where I started learning to fly. If you enjoyed watching
the FedEx rush hour from the ground, then you need to come back and take the tour of the sort hub. The tour actually starts around midnight and, according to several FedEx pilots, is jaw droppingly impressive. They move an inconceivable (channeling Wallace Shawn) number of packages in just a few hours. THAT would be cool. As an old newspaper guy, I've always been fascinated by the assembly, sorting and packaging equipment at the newspapers I've worked for and with. FedEx has taken these concepts to cosmically different levels than I've ever experienced... And, of course, they use really cool jets to accomplish their mission, all landing in one area within a few hours. Amazing. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
