The latest award is out...
The pilot group hired 4 people into the 767 and shrunk from 1026 to 1022.
The 747 FO slots shrunk by 17 slots. They're going to be hurting for 747 FOs next month because they can't afford to let the 767 guys bid over. Expect no base movement on the 747 until the 767 is properly staffed.
20 new hire spots all on the 767 to CVG. They only have 60 of 80 positions filled so expect hiring to be pretty continuous. In reality they probably need 40 to 50 767 spots to cover for attrition, retirements and the eventual release of 767 seat locks.
16 guys upgraded to 767 Captain. Congrats! 3 to JFK and 13 to CVG.
I'm guessing that we lost 2 last month to attrition. Our FO numbers shrunk by 18 and we had 16 upgrades so the math works out. I'm expecting attrition to slow the next 6 weeks thanks to the holidays.
The junior Captain was hired 26 April 2010.
Cheers!
