Not including those 48, there are approximately 460 line pilots with awards to DEN 737 Cap. About 100 of them are still on Probration so they can't go to Captain school yet. Many of the others are already in school, but not done yet.

For February there are approximately 300 Captains actually on the line in DEN 737. Number 240ish was the junior pilot that was gauranteed a line. He is senioriy 9800ish out of 17000, so slightly better than 60% system seniority to be guaranteed a line. The junior pilot that actually got a line was 260 numberish in DEN 737 Cap list(senior folks bidding reserve?) That pilot is almost 11000 in the system, so a little less than 70% system seniority. That junior lineholder got an 87 hour line with 15 days off. A total of 5 trips (2-4days, 2-3days, 1-2day), 2 of them with allnighters.
