Fair Enough, I did mean WB B. But your post illustrates my point. WB A never came down because of it's inherent qualities. The things that have brought WB B so junior are 'artificial' and not persistent, future deliveries notwithstanding.

To be fair, there have been at least 3 bids over the last 4 years folks have referred to as a/the MOAB - at least at the time. March 2019, Jan 2020 (which was cancelled due to COVID), Apr 2021. But there is still only one MOAD.

Notice a trend? Massive bids in the early part of the calendar year... I would expect the same to be true for the next AE in Early 2023, and it will be a 365 with the full closure of SEA 7ER.

How far we have come on expectations. It wasn’t long ago it was expected the results would be released two Fridays after the bid closed.

Anyone who bid something post VEOP is just now able to bid so WB A will go senior. My $0.02.

Last AE was out COB next day, totally possible to see the same again.

Certainly possible, but I won’t be surprised if it takes a little longer. Lots of WB A-driven secondary vacancies to consider, plus the displacements (if any).

True. My assumption is they run mock awards constantly through the process. By the time it closes they are close to what their desired result is. I could be totally wrong.

That may be (despite anecdotal folklore of folks that change or first-input bids late in the window).

I think the primary driver of quicker results, however, is the new processing software from Jeppesen. BS has previously claimed to eventually simultaneously publish the projected training with the AE results, but we are clearly not yet there.

You are correct however they recently stated they see large pilot bid changes the last day of the window.
