Even I'm at the very bottom of DTW 200 FO, I'm just looking for some of those marooned NY FOs to bump me up. On the 200 We have around 50 departures per day out of DTW and 20 out of JFK. So common sense would say DTW should be a little more than twice as big right?
(Not counting TDYs), We have 70 FOs in DTW and 62 in JFK. As well as 63 in LGA and only 41 in MSP. You have to think that NY is big enough now and they'll start to let some of those people move to the other bases.
All of a sudden you look at the bid packs and JFK and LGA are extremely fat and DTW and MSP are thin on FOs.
