There are some crazy numbers on there...but...Atlanta will net an additional 98 new captain positions.

I bet I'll sit on the 717 in the same % as I do the 88, which pays more.

The 88 will have more GSs, hours, and less legs.:D

I think there is a really good chance to roll this summer. Heck a GS went out today on the 88B. A year ago 1/4 of the reserves didn't work on the 88B and now we have GS's going out.

He might as well have said, "we may need to make everyone a captain and hire all FOs off the street."

Um yep. Get displaced, have no seat lock, and get a full course. Knew it was coming and surprised it took this long.

Has anyone done rolling thunder now that you can bid so many days off at the beginning off the month? Seems like it would make it very easy now.

I'm not sure, I don't know that anyone has successfully rolled in a number of years. I know my last roll was the summer of 08.
