To tag on to the thread:
A buddy is awaiting an interview. His last 4 of ssn start with the dreaded zero.
He just got a new baby, and is trying to avoid the 11 in ANC. If he ends up getting it, can he defer his class date and try his luck with another base/aircraft assignment?
Also, if assigned the 11, what is the stipulation for the seat lock on the widebody for newhires?
