They could still send more if they need to. They only have to give you a 15 day notice per the contract to send you to training. I have no idea though.....just what I heard.

Bet on this time next year for anything meaningful. You may see a couple smaller AEs between now and then. If the category went junior on the MOAB, any vacancies on subsequent smaller AEs probably get filled above 75% as pilots dogpile on top of the bottom of the list. I have a "friend" who experienced the dogpile phenomenon on two previoux MOABs.

My point is/was that the long-awaited posting is not notice (has no actual dates on it, just months) but more of a "gee-whiz" product to give you an idea roughly when you might train and/or convert. Once published, it is about as firm as warm Jello.

The only people this won’t affect is people upgrading for the first time, for anyone else like someone wanting to switch to international, it sucks
