Whoever invents a “stupidity filter” will be a very rich person. Until then, this Forum like any other public forum will have its share of “stupid” posts.

With that said, this Forum seems to reflect the demographics of the Pilot group much more accurately than the other popular social media options.

The APC polls were spot on with TA-1 and TA-2 whereas CC had TA-2 going down in flames, not even close. APC is far from perfect, but is much more reflective of the Pilot group with a nice distribution of Kool Aide drinkers balanced by our more militant peers, with plenty of moderate guys for a nice balance.

All inputs are welcome here.

How about we get back to guessing how this AE will go.

I'll bet they will re-evaluate and it will be smaller than rumor.com.

Well, after viewing the CR guy's Q&A video and what he had to say about the frequency of AE's, I would say if one is even thinking of bidding a new position then throw in a bid. It sounds like one big AE a year with a couple of cleanup (small) AE's the rest of the year. For the foreseeable future.

Everyone senior to 11,000 should avoid ATL 320B. Can't say why.

In all seriousness though, I'm thinking a lot of commuters with the ability to looks west might do really well bidding LAX or SEA what with the new 320 and 777 positions in LAX and a ton of new 330 positions going into SEA. If I still lived in Texas I would be setting my sights on LAX. That 321 NEO flying to Hawaii is gonna be sweet if it mirrors what the 757 is doing now out of LAX.

Has anyone confirmed the amount of A330 positions and where they’ll be? I saw a possible 60-100 Captains rumor here but haven’t seen anything more than that. Also, what about the 767-400? With the mods being completed soon, any word on more positions there?

When they do the look back for sick occurrences, do they look back on a day to day basis, or do they look back from the last day of the occurance, or when you called in well.

The reason I’m asking, I had a killer sinus infection and both of my ears were blocked last Feb. I missed 3 weeks of work and used 50 hours of sick time. The last day of the sick occurance was March 2nd.

Will most of that sick time drop off my rolling look back at the beginning of the next bid March 2nd? Or will the entire sick occurance carry over until the next lookback on April 1st?

I’ve had the QHCP verification hanging over my head since July, when I missed a 5 day.

I think icrew can tell you if you hit time cars then previous/ok and then sick time usage or sick usage look back. If that isn’t specific enough I can check after the kids are in bed.

Someone asked bob on sky hub where the 330 positions were going and he said mostly Seattle.
