Where are you getting this information? I just checked and the new vacancy award isn't out.

Edit: Guess it was out and now they took it down again.

I don't know if this was answered directly or not in the responses following. If you are saying you went back and read and meet the min's or whatever, then you probably already know this, but to be sure, as another military reservist who just got hired, they used a .2 conversion for my time.

Yeah. I guess it's about time, eh?

I counted 18-20... I'm not sure what's up with the two guys with the strange reference to the contract listed next to their names and I don't have a contract on me right now.

They are within one year of retirement, and the company is NOT obligated to train them on the new equipment and new seat, but the two WILL be paid at their new awarded position (767 CA pay for staying on the 747 as an FO).

No 767 pilots had their seat locks released. I believe next month there's no choice for the company in the matter.
19 New Hires in the last month added to the list all to the 747 in ANC.
3 people left. I counted 0 retirements.
ANC shrinks by 16 so that there aren't New Hire slots for the 767 guys to fill next month when their locks expire. I'd be furious about that if I were a 767 guy. The company is clearly worried about staffing CVG on the 767 when those locks expire.
The most junior captain is now hired in June of 2008.

Random aside, every FO on the 767 can hold almost any -400 base. ANC doesn't need vacancies. The reason nobody filled the LAX and other vacancies is because the locks don't start coming off until next month.

Something to remember about the seat locks, unless there are vacancies the individuals are held to their seats. So the company can control the exodous and the fact, as someone mentioned earlier, that there are no current new hire slots in ANC mean very little for the next vacancy bid. Just sayin.......

All new hires, just a reminder that Atlas is a Captains airline and you are just a necessary evil. I'm just say'n.

I thought the locks were up this month. We'll see what happens next month.
