Probably 50/50, the problem is there is really no way to tell until you show up in class. Even then, the numbers change. So for example you show up day 1 (20 people in class) and they say, okay "10 AB and 10 MD." Then you put in your bids and two weeks later, "never mind it's 15 MD and 5 AB." Then finally, one week before starting systems you get your final bid award.

Again, once your awarded something, that's it, you're locked. So if your one of the many DHL guys that lives in the greater CVG area and you get say, PIE MD-80? Your SOL sorry. (CVG being an AB only base)
