I'm excited about new hires getting LAX out of training. That's pretty cool. It's also neat to see that I could be 74% IAD 756 FO. Whoa....that happened fast.

Now if I could only figure out PBS! Watched the ALPA "Bidding Below the G Line" video. Hope it works. I'm super junior in LAX. Will find out Saturday morning.

In case any potential new hire has slogged through the bickering on this thread and wants to know, bids are awarded on 0001 on the 18th. I just don't know what 0001 it is. Eastern? Not sure, it's there in the morning when I wake up.

I'll end this with an invitation to share a Guppy study plan for any new hires with a break between BI and sim training. For any non-FMC military pilots.....holy cow, training is no joke. There is an expectation that you already know how to fly airliners.
Its central time....the bids have to be published by then per the contract but they are usually in on the afternoon of the 17th. If you go to PBS and CAT awards you can scroll down to your category and get them a little earlier.
