Nobody outbound? Where to they put all those aircraft on the ground?


Remember that FedEx started with the model of each aircraft making
exactly two flights a day -- to Memphis, wait while packages are
unloaded, sorted, and reloaded, then back to their city. So all the
arrivals had to occur before all the departures.


Before *all* of the departures? No one else uses the airport? Or, at
least, no one else uses the airport while the FedEx airplanes are arriving?


No, I wouldn't think so; I mean of their planes. But, late at night,
they were probably 95% of the use of that airport, too.

They would have to be 100% to explain the absence of departures in the
graphic.
