This is most definitely a large positive bid. There are so many good options to consider that it is difficult to bid. I find myself bidding for several seats with qualifiers on each. We have 230 seats open at the highest pay rate in our contract, that is double the 115 displacements off the 744A. There are over 100 more WB Captains with the 7ER, 765 and 330 in the mix. With 30 NYC 7ER A vacancies, we may see a 7ER Captain who was part of the unimaginable 7ER new hire boom in 2007. This bid has tons of upward movement with a few isolated pockets of possible displacements.

There is so much upward movement in this bid I think all the angst about displacements will not turn out to be a issue.

Finally the 2011 hires get noticed. Even the seniority list tries to pretend they don't exist. What's up with that? 🤡

What are predictions for MSP base in general? Not a lotta love from senior FOs in MSP for the 73N, which is good because it's a horrible airplane. Have a feeling a lot of folks sitting back until now. Anyone have thoughts on MSP??

Anyone else hear rumors of 350 buys being deferred 3 years? Could be sweet to get it, train, then be paid to stay home.....

So here's an interesting N v S take. I've heard from several asking "what's on your card?" My response: "Nothing, I'm happy where I'm at."
There is no need to fill a card. (order all of your positions desired) Some past AEs have resulted in unintended awards because they thought they had to have something in. That's not true. You can have as many or as few (0) preferences as you like. cant catch any fish, if you don't have a hook in the water:D |
Anyone have thoughts on where the displaced 744 copilots end up. Right seat 350?

my standing bid used to begin...MD-11A. A bid like this one is most likely to produce some 2x standard deviation awards.
