That seems to be the trend with the recent newhire classes. I wonder what they are ramping up for. We have a page on the company website that shows how many people are on reserve on any given day. This month if you look at that page each day there are about 20 guys on reserve all day. We only have 37-39 700's so Im not sure why they would ever need to use even close to that number of reserve FO's. The 700 for the month of april has 129 hard lines and 165 FO's. That's at least 36 guys awarded a reserve line. I don't know, it's probably normal but at the moment we are definatley fat on FO's since I haven't flown in a week and a half and it doesn't look like Im going to hit the skies anytime soon. No biggy though, get to hang out and be a bumb. Who wouldn't want to get paid to do that?
