The legacy of Greg Hall at all his previous employers is the increased outsourcing of maintenance work to outside vendors. We will try to track FedEx aircraft flights from Memphis to known vendors in our “Purple Tail Tracker” reports.
This is research in progress, so if you see something missing just add a comment. To add a comment, log in to the site and write in a blog entry; title the entry "Tracker." Over time, your contribution will raise our understanding of the outsourcing trends at FedEx. (Data source is FlightAware.com; used with permission.)
Known FedEx vendors:
ST Mobile Aerospace at Mobile, AL (KBFM)
TIMCO at Greensboro, NC (KGSO)
Aeroframe Services at Lake Charles, LA (KCWF)
