I think perhaps his point was that 90% of the pilots on the 1 year bids are converted in 6 months. The company always seems to use it on a winter bid to allow the option to retain pilots in understaffed categories for the summer peak. That usually is almost always the 7ER pilots because it has the biggest summer winter swing. Those that don't get converted in the Spring will almost all see a Sep or OCT conversion.
