We ran another vacancy bid. The next class should have their pick of FO slots in all 4 bases since there are projected vacancies in all bases. Eventually they will start sending everyone to ORD again until the next vacancy bid in 3 months or so.

There were no forced upgrades and no MIA captain awards. Anyone who wanted ORD captain got it and will continue to be able to bid for and get it between vacancy awards. PHX and DFW CA slots were filled and some were disappointed they couldn't hold it. I expect this means the urgency to hire DECs and experienced FOs is gone and they will see no reason not to continue to prioritize cadets.

February 10th and February 24th make sense for the next Indoc class dates but I have no inside knowledge on that.
