DCL has a gap, almost 300 numbers between last and second to last, but that's why the junior guys got displaced off it.
And according to you, NCE has a gap too. And that would be impossible because you just promised a year of commuting to NY.
You won't have any FOs displacing to DCE this time round, so your point is moot.
I'm giving you pearls of wisdom, and you are arguing over semantics... gradient, gap, whatever.
The point is that there is a lot of room above the junior guys on the DCE seniority list. They don't even become lineholders until they reach 3 digit seniority numbers. In that space are plenty of guys who would prefer to be Dallas based, but are either in ORD, LGA, or are currently FOs. The more guys like that in that space, the greater the chance that the bottom DCE guys get displaced, or face perpetual airport standby. There are even junior guys on the DCL list moving to DCE. Nobody on the DCE list is waiting to go to ORD or LGA to create more vacancies.
Anyway, I never promised you a year of reserve on the NCE list. I'm just hoping that happens as karma for all the rudeness and petty arguments you've been posting here.
