The numbers are there, the format is different than what we’re used to. Look at MEM 67Cap for example. There are 311 people currently awarded that seat, and they want a minimum of 412 with a maximum of 412 as well. That’s the new way of saying they’re posting 101 new vacancies in that seat. If any of the current 311 pilots in the seat bid out it would increase the vacancies in the seat further. For seats like the MD and Bus, since the numbers are equal, no vacancies will be created unless people bid out. This also means that no one will be forced out of their current seat via excess which was a concern for some earlier.
