Take a look at the spreadsheet in the previous post. MX727 came up with roughly the same numbers. They're gonna run with about 380 57 Captains, 40-50 of which are pay only so 340 effectively. That means probably 200ish regular lines. 480 FO's leaves 280 FOs on secondary or reserve lines at min BLG.
They overhired. According to the bid they have 200 too many and they're going to push that excess from the most expensive to the least expensive seat. We'll see how far they get into it before the tide turns (it always does eventually)
