PV and BW;
You are both so wrong and inexperienced in the airline industry, you don't even understand the tsunami coming your way. We are going to experience an "almost huge furlough", but from the middle of the seniority list. A few really senior 76T guys will bid wide body, a few will retire from that seat, the rest are waiting to bump. They are waiting because they are getting paid line guarantee to fly much less, or zero.

There will be very few narrow body Capt bids for a couple of years, at least.

UAL can choose to sit on too many captains, but to fly Capt with Capt, it requires both pilots concur.

UAL rarely sits on too many pilots. They bump. I hope the DEN 737 CAP, hired in 06, can afford the house they bought on FO pay. That is if they can even hold the FO seat in 1 year.
