And if you guys don't bid it this time we might have to furlough and have displacements bids (or come up with some sort of better FDA LOA!*?)

If I bid HKG f/o on this bid (after discussing moving overseas with my family) ... will the bid get canceled like the past 3 bids have??

As a big stickler for vocabulary, shouldn't this thread be called "Old Bid Out"?

The interesting part to me is the training start dat of Nov 2008. The one guy who bid this gets Christmas in Memphis and fish heads and rice for New Years.

Instead of a poll on:

How many will bid it this time?

How about a poll on:

How many times will the company post these vacancies before they get a clue?

My guess is they will continue to open postings seeking Airbus F/O's until they change it to an MD10 base and then the cycle will start over again
