Expect the ANC base to shrink with the 777 coming and expansion of HKG

On a positive note: NRT ramp agent says loads have been increasing this last week

ANC Excess?

Lots of hotel stby in ANC for MEM pilots these days. It doesn't seem like we need fewer pilots in ANC, It seems like we need more. Check out these ANC pairings that were converted to MEM pairings.

2453 MEM CA 1AUG
2425 MEM CA 28JUL

Sorry I don't know how to do the cool link for this.

Got a call for Draft today, 30 hour trip. Said they had no other options. Going to be tough to cover some trips in the future I think, however the MEM guys coming up may be willing to fly draft.

ANC FO
for now

True, for now. But, as a previous poster mentioned, how does the addition of more 777s change the system form?
