Last of the postal hires still cant hold mem 57 capt. Although they could get a pretty high slaveship crashpad slot.

MD11 ANC and MEM Capt went senior on the secondaries, guess I will be part of the problem for another year. NO way to HKG or CGN Capt.

Your ignorance is forgiven. Go in peace.

Thanks for the info. I’m guessing that new-hire emails will generate sometime after this bid period. It seems logical that management would need to assess the need after the fallout of 12-01. Am I tracking correctly?

Looks like I need to prepare mentally for HKG or CGN. Anyone care to share experiences related to the foreign domiciles in a new thread? I’m assuming the choices are to commute or relocate (FDA?). Experiences relating to both choices would be great.
