Boeing can hit a home run sometimes and go all herp derp the rest of the time.

I must have missed it, can you show me the A/E's where there were 56 openings for 747/777 Capts? I haven't seen one in a couple years. I do recall the displacements off the 747's when they were adding the lie flat seats, did they ever reinstate those guys? It's not 'new' positions if it's simply reinstatement.

my problem with the reserve schedule check is the wording. it says I MUST check it between 1500-0200, which according to the FAR's is not true. I can check it then if I want to, but they can't require me to check it on my days off according to the FAA. Shouldn't it be "the earliest the company may attempt to contact you is 0000 on your first day on call". There should be no schedule check required.

They were replaced in the AUG and OCT 2012 bids after the ER program. I know the forum has posted none were replaced but that is incorrect. There have been no 747 displacements posted since the contract was signed. I have a chart of every CA position posted for displacement or advancement since contract 2012 however I can't make it format in a post. Forum lore does not match the real numbers.
No replacements.
The category is still overstaffed, so I expect as more guys turn 65 every month, it will shrink further, with no replacements.
Where were these 56 A/E's to? DTW? And how many of them were the reinstatements for the lie flat seat mods?

A few others were STD/LTD pilots that returned to 747A having perviously held it.

I see -9 fewer 777As from this time in 2012 to now.
It was -27 in ATL, +18 in DTW from 2012 to 2014.
Looking for April 2008 data.

The reserve schedule check is contractual, its not "them," it's what "you" said you would do.
