Just for discussion purposes ... "If" I were considering a HKG vacancy, why would I want to get my family excited about the possibility of going there when the last 3 bids have all been canceled?

In addition:

Future Bids
Upon completion of the manning evaluation currently underway, it's
possible that another realignment (excess) bid could occur this summer.
It is anticipated that the first bid for 777 crews will be posted in
October 2008. Given our current staffing levels, it is unlikely that we
will be hiring in the foreseeable future.

Just checked my standing bid, and it still had my bid for the excess in it. Beware if you might have been bidding to relieve.

Lets hope several are very junior. I really think that will help alleviate any furlough concerns.......

Let's hope they have to put new hires there and make them live under the terms of the FDA LOA ... if they can even get new hires to go there?

I'll bet we get more than a dozen. Times are tough...and riding the panel for many years OR having some adventures on widebody pay might give some guys pause. The LOA has its shortfalls...I'm not here to defend it. But on the other under, I'm betting we get another dozen dudes...

3...


And why does everyone keep talking about a furlough. There are NO furlough concerns! We are making money and will need those bodies in 6 months when the 777 bid closes.
