I don't mean to hijack this thread but we're all fine. Stop in the shop and chat when you're passing thru.

Thanks for the info...

If I'm reading it correctly, then there were 27 vacancies between primary and secondary? Looks like all but 2 were Boeing SOs.

Hmmmmm....

Interesting..........Rumors I've head say the opposite. No hiring for the next few months, NO Moab until later in the year. There might be a small Bid filling openings on the A300 and excess off the 10 in the coming month or May. A bid for 757 will probably come later in the summer or early Fall...........No Euro Domicile at least initially because they can't have High Mins guys in Europe............

Again this is just ONLY more Rumor Control..............which just goes to show you.........
None of us Know what we are talking about......except Tony of course .

Gotta agree with Redeye here;

Possibility of a small bid soon to keep the training pipelines open.

The main reason for this is the contractual requirement for a bid with a foreign domicile to remain open for 45 days; a normal bid with no foreign domicile only needs to stay open for two weeks. That month of slack buys the company time to fill training slots without committing to a foreign domicile.

The other rumor is that the company has had enough of the domicile wrangling with all the countries and will just say SCREW IT and make the 757s SIBA.

If that is true, the 757s will show up in May on the bid as MEM based. If the company is still determined to have a European domicile, the 757 will not show up until a domicile is determined.

Early bid with the 757 = it's going SIBA.

Early bid with no 757 = European domicile still in the works; stand by. We're trying to keep other training pipelines filled.

No bid until June: 757s in Europe, everything is squared away.
