I'm in the 3/3 class. We were never given the pick order, however, we are sitting in seniority order. I don't think anyone went around the room with a paper to figure out how the aircraft were doled out. What I can tell you is that it has followed the typical order of the previous classes. 737s, 320s, and 7ERs tended to all be the most popular. 320s ran out first because we only had 5 of them. 737s were next to go. 7ERs were gone midway through the drop. 717s were next to run out. I believe the last 11 had no choice but to take the MD-88. But with that said, MD-88s were sprinkled throughout the pick with several of the senior guys/gals taking it as their first choice.
