Someone more recently can give a better answer about when you bid for equipment/base, but I think it's via an e-mail about 10 days prior to starting?? Can someone confirm?
Unconfirmed that today's NH class was told 1200 this year, with possibly more if... I strongly suspect they are being very conservative with that number, and that they are actually expecting more like 1500, or even 1800.
Best of luck.
When they send the bids out for new hires and give the options of what's is available, do they limit the amount per each plane and base? For example, the company offers DTW320, if the AE only fills said 10% that you mentioned, could one class purely pick the remainder 63 slots of DTW320's? Or do they meter it per each class and force something like 10 per each base/aircraft, (10 DTW320, 10 ATL 320... and so on?)
