If it were me and I lived in MEM I would probably plan on sitting reserve for five years. If that were my choice I would bid WB and get paid well for it.
Those are the lines I was thinking along. I didn't think I'd have a choice in the matter since my last 4 are so low, but the last indoc class had 6 x 777, 3 x 76, and 3 x Buses in addition to the 4 x 75 (and 4 x MD). I started to think I might have a chance at something WB and my indoc "bid" choice may actually be more complicated than taking whatever is left over. Starting with the 12 Sep class, we are sending in a bid/dream sheet before BI starts and I think we'll know our aircraft before we show up. Class also starts on Sunday for MD folks and Monday for everyone else. I guess if I accidently fall into a 777 I'll just have to make the best of it!
Thanks again for the help.
