Any strong opinions on who to address a letter of recommendation to when submitting it on Airline Apps? Trying to avoid, "Dear Sir/Ma'am" or "To who it may concern"
Thanks.
Thanks.

And that doesn't even suppose we'll play another hand of Consolidation.
I'm going to go have a seat next to Bar, because I think I just got served what he's having.

This is called the, "At least I didn't move backwards" bid.
Now, how many of those 191 early outs are they going to replace, that's the big question.
I think I know the answer, but I'll wait until the next bid and see if they actually do replace all of them.
I have not seen the actual break down of exactly how many went early, from each category, after the big pull-out (60 guys pulled out of the early out, early).
I'll need those numbers to keep track of the backfilling. Anyone seen them yet?

Given the trends on (not) backfilling, and the fact there are still DC-9 displacements to offset the first batch, and given capacity guidance, I find no rational reason to expect positive bids.
And that doesn't even suppose we'll play another hand of Consolidation.

True, but for the first 717 awards, I'm going to assume those WB FO's will be competing with displaced DC-9 A's. Same concept on the 737-900: they are supposed to be offset by 767-300/757/320 retirements.
In theory, the retirements could lag behind the deliveries, but I'm just as much of a MD-88 A, in theory, as little Johnny is a millionaire in theory.

Didn't see any movement at all in the NYC 320 base. Either seat and I know we had at least one on the RMA list. I guess Timbo is right, "At least I didn't move backwards".

Anyone notice they only filled 10 of the 15 NYC 73B's? Does that mean New Hires soon?

No movement on the SLC 73N B list.
Little bit on the A list due to 6 new SLC73NA spots. One swap w/ LAX, couple 320 capts at SLC moved to the 73.
Just two SLC F/Os moved up, one from the 320 and one from the 7ER.
Kinda disappointing as an FO, but indeed the first thing I said was "I DIDN'T MOVE BACKWARDS!" which turns out to be stellar actually, as it's the first AE I haven't moved backwards for 3 years. Sweet!... there's very little that downgraded goals in life won't fix

I thought SC only adds to your RAW not credit. Am I incorrect? The new contract says once you hit guarantee you're done. But the implementation schedule says NLT 1Dec12 for the ALV+15 max and full at guarantee. Must be a programming thing because the max res on DBMS still says 82. So hopefully the computer won't let them schedule me past 80!
