There should be more information out regarding calling UAL guys after that - for what it's worth.
ERJ,
Based on the last system bid results, we waited for information about CAL recall returns to see if any extra slots would be left. Unofficially we hear rumors that it was about 40 pilots short.

Once the company knows how many of the 147 are returning they can condense that list and see how many slots are left to offer furloughed UA guys...
Did they already determine that there would be no slots left for UAL pilots as a result of the last system bid?
