Just saw a few unfilled vacancies at LUAL. What happens when LUAL recalls and the furloughed pilots that went to the LCAL side decide to come back here. Won't that throw a wrench into the operation. I sure hope so.

The senior, voluntary L-UA furloughs' (100+) return will each generate 3 separate training events. Their replacement at L-CAL, the seat to which they are returning at L-UA & the original vacancy. Nice. Now if there was only a simple way to avoid this............

Sadly, Co-Worker Jeff has a plan to solve this dilemma... park more and more L-UAL airplanes. I've seen several 757's and at least 1 747-400 parked in SFO with the paint stripped off. What a company.

4 narrowbody FO bids system-wide, one was filled.

Said another way: "75% of the narrowbody FO bids went unfilled" :eek:

Actually 208 voluntary furloughs when the music stopped in Nov 2009.
