Question FDX-How many new FOs are really going to HKG?

So how many new FOs are really going to HKG?

...with 09-01 (Vacancy posting for 36 FOs) closing out 12 days after 09-03 (Excess Bid)...and the 09-02 (Excess Bid) already closed with 13 "new" FOs already on the list.

Looking at the current practice bids, it looks like the pool of pilots thinking about it is around 33.

- 9 from 09-02 Excess Bid which has closed

- 13 from 09-01 Vacancy Bid/Practice #1 which closes 28 Apr

- 17 from 09-02 Excess Bid/Practice #2 which closes 16 Apr (Thursday!)

...the #s are a bit confusing though, because a handful of names show up on both lists.

Any guesses on the total # of FOs the "final results" of all bids will generate?

Will they hit their target of 36 FOs?

...or even exceed it??

Another interesting situation if they do exceed it...if those being excessed can't be awarded due to creating an excess in a FDA, then POP? Those whom are being excessed may bump those who are trying to bid the primary vacancy for 09-01.

As stated before...30% 27 S/O vs 50% 30 HKG F/O...and a pay cut, a move, a house, relocation...etc. Should be interesting

I'll be there on Thursday...afterall, "...it's an opportunity to fly a different aircraft at another domicile..."
