Hire date would go back to June of 2006.
As far as the ETOPS training, for FO's it's only a two day class on procedures and additional raft training. The Captains are the only ones that need a line check. Unfortunately it probably wouldn't be that difficult to train up another group for ETOPS. The logistics should still apply as to a particular base of pilots being trained. Unless they wanted to train all of SEA, they would have to train a certain amount of folks, then have a base reduction and pay to move all the new ETOPS FO's to ANC. We'll see if it actually plays out that way.
Saretsky has said a lot of things that don't pan out. Just before the 165 number he was saying 50-70 at the ANC base roadshow. What "truth" do you want to believe?
