Apologize if this has been asked, new around here and lots of posts and thread movements. Wondering which airframe is best for SLC? I am going to be pretty low in my class selection so hopeful to get anything in training that has a base in SLC. Just wondering with the airport construction and what was trending for new hires/movement west for first years. Was thinking 320/220/737 in that order. Any help appreciated!

As of the Feb bid period, we have more WB pilots (764/330 and up) now than we did in the summer of 2018. Not saying I'm happy with how many spots we have wrt our JVs/etc.. Just stating facts.

6,500 As, so its 6.5%

Correct, but WB postings are keeping up with WB retirements. Not all retirements are from WB positions.

If you are planning on bidding all 3 of those categories........just bid them in the order you want with any percentage you want. Don't need to over think it. If available you will get it.

220 has the most and fastest growth over the next 2 years. We will be getting another 50 planes during that time.

Does it? The 321 NEO is not on the line yet, we are getting 100 of those.

i would say 320 or 220 should be good enough for him/her.
