We see this same post constantly. If it were anywhere close to true we would have zero widebody pilots at Delta. This bid for the most part is covering flying from now until the end of summer. Another bid will be posted in a few months. You still have widebody pilots being trained and converted from prior bids. We probably have about 150 widebody Captains retiring between now and the end of Aug. The total count of widebody CA positions is increasing and that increase will really kick into gear with this a subsequent bids. In the last 10 months the company has posted or awarded 380 CA positions on 764-400 or larger equipment.
