You are correct, seven years to hold any captain slot, right now.
I think you meant August upgrade class. September has not been awarded yet.

2. We can keep threads "on track", and do so all the time. It is entirely appropriate to start a SKW/Surejet integration/whipsaw thread and you're probably the right guy to do it. But this is not that thread.
As a MOD, I obviously can't opt out on specific users.

More than 100 E175s, you know how it goes, the official word on where and when will probably come out sometime down the line.

From "UTC's" prospective, they would need to know a firm number so they can plan there budget/MX personal in place..A loose 100 or so number is bad business form...

1. Union discussions are restricted to the union forum...that's why it was created. Unions have all the same issues as politics...thread trajectory is always predictable and never good.
2. We can keep threads "on track", and do so all the time. It is entirely appropriate to start a SKW/Surejet integration/whipsaw thread and you're probably the right guy to do it. But this is not that thread.
