That is why they post extra positions on the AE's in new hire aircraft. It gives them the flexibility to keep all the pipelines full. They are not going to post extra positions on equipment like the 330 because people would actually bid them. It's also why the constant posts you see here after a AE talking about how many pilots they need based on unbid positions are useless.
