Default AE Tool Available

Another simple mini-app to make your life easier. This will be available for the duration of the AE window. It's free for all Delta pilots:

-Easily filter trips of pilots junior to you. This shows exactly the trips you could expect to hold
-See the unstacking level for REG & RES
-See the junior line holder

There will be some more improvements shortly, but we wanted to get this pushed out ASAP with the AE right around the corner. Feel free to submit suggestions and we will try to incorporate them.

Fly safe,

Looks like a great tool.

It would be helpful for those intending to bid reserve to know where they fall in that subset of the category. One might be 80% in category but 30% amongst the reserve bidders (for a given month). They might also be 80% in category and 70% among reserve bidders.

i like it, but what is the seniority tool based on? It's not correct for Nov or Dec Category lists.

It appears to be based on the most recent forecast staffing report, which would be May 2018. Based on that, this data is correct for me.

Really cool, thanks for the update. I'm having a hard time figuring out how to show more than 25 rotations in the AE tool.

The average age of pretty much any A category is nuts.

Good idea. We have those data fields already parsed out, so it's just a matter of adding it to the black Category screen. I've made a note to add it on the next update

To clarify are you talking about the Seniority Tool or the AE Tool? See below for more...

This is not quite correct. For the AE Tool, it is displaying your seniority compared to those pilots that were on the actual bid award for a given category. It uses your system seniority # and compares it to the number of each pilot as it loops through the Composite Report.

We have gone back and forth about whether to use the monthly category lists or the seniority list, as there is sometimes a discrepancy between the two sources. My best guess is this is due to pilots entering/exiting the lists on a continuous basis. Because of this discrepancy, the most accurate result is to compare a pilot's seniority # to that of other pilots on the actual PBS run.

The Seniority Tool uses a different source and simply tallies up the data from the most recent system seniority list. The list in use is published at the top of the page.

Hope that explanation helps.

25 was the compromise reached to keep browsers from melting down from all the processing. Expanding it to 50 or more was causing slow rendering (even on fast machines.)

I will try to put in an option to select the max display rows on the next update, so you can adjust it as you see fit. For now, you can filter down the data using the sidebar filters OR use the date range feature to move chronologically through the month.

How about next/previous page navigation? Would that require more processing even if it weren't all displayed on one page?
