The cell phone lot at ATL isn't a bad place to watch the planes. The quality of the show depends on which way they are landing. No bathroom. Kids cannot run around. Air conditioning in the car.

Seat Lock/Training Freeze question:
If a person incurs a 2-year seat-lock due to bidding a different a/c on this next AE, then a new category opens (i.e. DTW 350A/B) how does bidding the new aircraft/category affect the current seat-lock? Is it an additional 2-years, on top of our current freeze or does the person just incur a "new" 2-year freeze? Thanks in advance.

c. during which the pilot will (unless declared eligible by the Company) be ineligible to be awarded another AE with an earliest conversion date falling within the freeze period (other than to a new or reestablished category) for which qualification training is required.
Nothing about incurring more freeze.

Sweet. Do the current EFB's utilize gogo? If It's like my last gig you'd have to ask a flight attendant or passenger to describe the radar picture to be legal.

I seem to recall a pilot who bid NYC B717 Captain and then, on the next AE, hopped over to NYC A330 F/O. That is probably 40-45 months of category freeze right there. On the bright side, he/she won't have to worry about filling out AE preferences for a while...until the A350 or CSeries comes along (or that long-rumored MSP 73N category opens). 😊
