I know it sounds paranoid, but after the last three years nothing surprises me. I agree with you though, there will be FEW, if any bumps/displacements going forward.
As a former S-CAL pilot I ask you, why all the secrecy with Bid 14-02D? I haven't heard a single S-CAL pilot discuss it in person or on any of the forums. Flight Ops hasn't said a word about it to the former S-UA pilots. It's like a mystery bid. So why the secrecy?

The gentleman asked a question about bid 14-02D. Does anyone know what it is?
When the new MEC takes office, this kind of stuff will stop. If any wrong doing has been done by the company, the new MEC will correct it for the benifit of all.
