The later ones will have to fight over the leftovers.

I got awarded IAH as the most junior non-street CA, so it can't be too terribly senior now with the growth.
Chuck was saying that we are all going to be a Sabb class in February. Unless something has changed and a lot of people didn't want to upgrade to the Q400. Hopefully we will be able to pick our own base if in the first class, but it looks like they need pilots out of IAD.
