Nor will the schoolhouse. Sim instructors have officially been encouraged to wear the orange lanyard.

Bid is out.

LAX 777B category opening with 15 vacancies and 30 LAX 777A vacancies.

Lots of 73N and 320 positions.

Looks like some ER positions for the summer with backfills which is good.

Actually looks like it will be a big bid with some good movement.

Looks like a ton of 717 and md88 openings. Safe to assume a guy going to indoc end of this month with get one of those?

Its a guarantee you will have the option of the M88. With the 320 openings you may see a few 320 slots...probably in NYC.

There's no other option by management.

The regionals are collapsing due to lack of pilots wanting to go that route. It's generally expected that there will be a full collapse in the next 4 years.

Bring it on. Would the E-175's be a common category with the E-190's?

Whatever pilots DCI can come up with could fly the CRJ-700/900 fleet we could take all the E-175's.

E170, E175, E190, E195 and the 3 new E2 versions are all common. Probably more so than the MD88/90 and the 757/767 multiple variants.
