I can think of lots of mundane reasons to postpone classes but to cancel them without any explanation is disturbing. Perhaps some financing fell through?
Guys, we're showing in IAD and CLT 15 and 13 available FO reserves respectively for the last two days of the month. There are only around 30 total hard lines in IAD. If 15 unused FO reserves per day per base isn't overstaffed I don't know what is.
On top of that there's about to be 40 more guys hit the line end of the month, plus the class of 18 that started this month. Until they start running upgrades for the new 900s or for the guys going to the EJET program I think it's fair to say we're FAT on FOs, or will be come Feb. 1.
