There have been rumors on the CAL side of another decent size bid coming out, January I think. As for classes, they are 12 per class until the end of the year and then the size increases to 16 until this latest round is finished. Since the current bids are primarily due to aircraft deliveries in 2012 it is reasonable to think they will have to continue the training pipeline in order to handle the coming retirements. Who knows if there might be a few month gap but since CO only puts bids out twice a year (I think) there would almost certainly have to be some retirement based bids coming in the next round...
For any UAL legacy guys/gals that don't already know, the MEC forum was shutdown a few months back and thanks to a great effort by a few we were back up and running our own board in a matter of 2 days. CAL guys/gals can also access it and there are three sections, UAL only, UAL/CAL interchange, and CAL only. Great board and well run. Lots of good information flowing. Here is the link...

Good luck to everyone.
