If the 787 Captain displacement is significant they will have to do at least two cleanup displacements to get the west coast right. Then we can get ready for DCA 777, LAX 777, IAH 777 and 756, CLE, and GUM.
Yup..This....^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Hence, we are hiring "internally". Freeing up unproductive pilots to go back to active status. That is why we aren't hiring until late in the year.
They shouldn't call it 1711D, they should call it 1711UJ. For Un Jeffing.
