Junior G4 FO line holder typically is very close to being able to hold CA. I've posted the junior CA data so a line holding G4 FO is close to that. That's about your answer for each base.

In DFW and LGA(JFK) the difference between junior CA and line holding 777 FO was 100-150 numbers for August.

For a snapshot of today that's close enough. It might, and could, change.

Congrats to everyone (except ORD..)

Nobody took it in the shorts like the poor TWA guys though. 2012 hires senior to some of them.

Think it’s all perspective. Relative seniority is relative seniority. However ask those 88-90 hires at LUS who are 5000 numbers behind others same year? So again many Can complain and did. However let’s move on. Many have indeed.

Exactly! Should have stapled the legacy guys, they were, after all, in bankruptcy! Amiright!!?

What does the merger and SLI have to do with the Dec vacancy award? Take it outside fellas.

Two questions. How are they determining the LUS east pilots who get one of the SLI gp 4 bids.
It seems like it went extremely junior.. unless they all are seriously that junior.

Second, when does the seat lock start if they withhold you.

They would have been a lot closer at stand alone LUS. Problem is when the SLI staggers things greatly you then have huge numbers of LAA pilots between LUS pilots who are entitled to those jobs because of them SLI language. Same complaint the above guy had about TWA pilots between 2013 hires. The list worked out that way.... It is what it is.

If i remember correctly there’s a set number of g4 captain positions that have to go to LUS pilots. That’s the number of g4 captain seats that LUS brought to the merger. As LAA pilots bid to the 330 that opens up 787/777 spots for LUS guys. That number is protected for 5 years from SLI i believe.

Your seat lock starts when you are released
from your withhold. So if you get a position on the June bid but are withheld and then released on the December bid your seat lock starts in December.

I was afraid you would say that. Here's to hoping I get released sooner rather than later. Thanks
