Basically, I'm totally confused because:
1.) The company says by next November basically all the DC-9's will be parked. But, this 365 day conversion AE doesn't park all the DC-9's by November 1st. &
2.) The company says that by next December we will have 20 more MD90's. But, this 365 day AE only increases the amount of MD88 A's by 25 and 32 MD88 B's.
If I think about it any more, I'll just confuse myself more.
Did I just confuse anyone else?
I would look for a "clean-up" bid early next year which will account for more MD-90 positions and such. Then another around the first part of summer which will account for the rest that this didnt account for. The 365 day conversion window gives them flexibility to slow to base closings or training as need be as marketing changes their mind 20 more times.
The big SOC bid that nuked me off of the 767 was a 365 day window. I ended up in 73N training in May... and in the May "clean-up" bid I was reinstated to the 767. I chose to give the 73N a try.... wahoo.
