Curious what’s gonna happen this spring/summer staffing wise for us.
Rolling T for A categories? 🙃

Anyone know how long the wait for A330 OE is right now?

We might disagree about how much the historical WB A norms will change (though I'm less pessimistic about your 2014 hire to WB A 'prediction' than I was when you first made it), and what the definition of a 'wall' is (sorry, I had to...), but it sure will be fun to watch what happens, especially if we stay on this trajectory. FWIW, I hope you win your bet.
Cheers to that!

This is one of the funniest things I've read on here in a long time.

The only place where more dudes spank it to widebody airplanes than Trip does here is down at ERAU.

Thank you, Trip. I'm definitely looking forward to doing some International again.

AE next week still? Likely just FO positions? Any deets?

Why do you assume just FO positions?

Haven't seen anything asked/answered on SkyHub or elsewhere. Last AE memo said, "We anticipate that the next AE will be posted in the first week of February." Whether than means the first full week, who knows... They seem to have settled into the monthly model for 'for the foreseeable future' though.

I highly doubt there will be a lack of Capt positions.

We are getting to the point of the year where they will stop awarding a ton of positions to have all hands on deck for the summer rush. With the new 150 day window that puts conversions into July. I'm guessing less than 30 WB A spots. Hope I'm wrong although I don't have a dog in the fight.
